It depends on what you're doing. Low level stuff pretty much has to be C. But for applications I agree there are much better alternatives these days.

Yeah, there may be some situations where C is necessary as a wrapper for assembly if you're _extremely_ memory constrained or something like that. But I wouldn't have any confidence in it working as intended unless it's dead simple.
