The idea that there are "webs" I am simply not privvy too thanks to language excites me for some reason. Even down to those webs having all their own memes and cultural hotspots etc.
The only other "web" I do have a small window into is the Japanese language web, thanks to importing cars and car parts, I have been learning Japanese. Web design there is incredibly different, and the approach to social forums like car clubs seems pretty novel too. One thing that transcends the language barrier seems to be information hierarchy which is cool. Parts don't have cars, cars always have parts, small example but that kind of thing.

If you've ever lived abroad you quickly start using auto-google-translate in Chrome as second nature and finding out which are "the internet places to be" isn't that hard in the first place. Then having lived in about 3 non-english speaking countries I'm sad to report that half the content is ripped out of "English speaking" internet, including memes, but then obviously there's regional culture that varies per website. The subreddit for a specific country + google translate is a good start, but for some countries you'll miss their biggest hangout in reddit (ie: spain with the forocoches forum). That being said you can always Google "top sites by country" and immerse yourself. It's like traveling but for free. All of this is super obvious but maybe someone that only speaks english is genuinely interested and hasn't thought about doing it regardless.
