There is no correlation whatsoever with the amount of talks in conferences and what's happening in real life.
If conferences were a metric for anything you'd assume most of coding in the world is happening in Node.JS/React/JS-package-manager-of-the day.
The reality is that the vast, vast majority of devs and code that's actually running the world are doing some combination of Java, C#, PHP, C++, C and COBOL. Those people aren't exactly going to conferences; they have regular old boring 9 to 5 jobs and are plenty busy trying to make shit work or diving in piles of legacy code or installing run-of-the-mill CMSes.
