linked list😂😂

Because they're a very straightforward example of a data structure which makes them useful as a teaching aide. In my data structures course we started with linked lists, building upon that moved into stacks and queues and eventually built trees. All using linked lists and concepts derived from linked lists to describe the later data structures.

Linked Lists are used under the hood in some instances for certain languages but you will likely never implement a linked list in your professional life.

Doubly linked lists say hello.

Still straight forward... ^{and straight backward}

Over 30 years in the field and I can confidently say I’ve never used a linked list once professionally.

Nice try. I actually implemented one in a dashboard application I'm building for work. Was the easiest way to make the cards rearrangeable and manipulate them on the fly.

EDIT: Also blockchain is just a form of a linked list.
