I helped my nephew (a teenager) with a coding project he was working on recently, and nano is what he was using when he made edits on the server. So, yes. People are still using it, and new people are picking it up because it's an easy editor that works anywhere. It seems like you'd want to learn something a little more powerful (like, say, vim) if you work on the command line via a remote connection frequently, but for every once in a while, you can't beat nano for ease of use. There's really no learning curve to do basic edits. (Meanwhile, some poor soul is struggling this very moment to figure out how to exit vim.)
