There is a lot of sites and even older CMSs that use it or depend on it for frontend stuff. So it will continue to be implemented or at least need to know how to deal with it so knowledge of it is not wasted but perhaps a new project with newer frameworks probably does not have any need for it.

Yes, it will always come in handy but a common mistake ( Did it too 🤷‍♂️) is learning it before learning the same things in JS.
