Silicon Forest Developer/hacker. I write about Generative AI, DevOps, and Linux mostly.
Once held the world record for being the youngest person alive.
I'm somewhat out of the loop with frontend development, it's been about 3 years since I did anything with SASS. So take my opinion with a grain of salt.
Is SASS worth learning in 2020? I agree with you that it is, so many organizations are using it. PostCSS might be gaining steam but there's a lot of SASS out there.
Another reason to learn it is simply stepping outside the "CSS" pattern itself. Just dumping a bunch of CSS into a file (or multiple files) is fine, but not scaleable. Learning how to think about styling at a larger scale is valuable, even if the pattern isn't the latest and greatest thing.
When I made the jump into SASS I started thinking of CSS the same way I think of "real" software (I'm primarily a backend developer). SASS is the way to put real engineering into your styling. That alone makes it worth learning.
