Lots of people are also into breathing, eating, and having sex. I don't see those activities losing mindshare.
Programming languages and their affiliated ecosystems are tools for solving problems. It's fine if you want to argue that Python has ceased to solve problems for people now, either because there are new problems, or because Python itself has changed/evolved into irrelevance. But if it truly is the case that some people don't want to use it because "it's not hip", then those people are probably not actually trying to solve real problems that anyone cares about.
