Yea people absolutely still build companies with these tools. If you just want to start a Saas company as a side project you would do yourself a disservice if you didn't use something like Rails, Django or Laravel. The problem is in larger companies, developers stopped caring about just solving the business problems and moved on to solving non existent technical issues to build resumes to go the next job to get more salary. They go to company to company like a parasitic infection leaving them to rot by introducing Kubernetes React, Go microservices with Rust cli tools. Also it might be an issue of not being fulfilled in life outside of work.
