There have always been people like that, it's just more noticeable now because the numbers are larger.
People still use MySpace and Digg, and there are people on Bluesky, Mastodon, here, etc.
It's in its afterlife phase right now. Much of the comment sections on any given subreddit are full of newbies using colloquialisms from other platforms. e.g. Users call subreddits "groups" which I think originates from Facebook. Or users trying to "bump" posts. There's a lot of signs that the core userbases are gone.
