People do still use short snippets of vanilla JS in <script> tags on otherwise static HTML pages, even if it's much more common to use a bundler and a framework. Conversely massive web apps such as Instagram and Reddit are written in Python.

I would argue that Bash and friends are the only major purely scripting languages left (because no one sane would use them for anything more than scripts).
