Apache still runs some really big websites that likely have more requests than many of these startups. Ticketmaster has used Apache for almost 15 years as their primary webserver (but they're fronted by layers of varnish / Akamai). They also maxed out dual 10G links with web traffic in 2007 or so when I worked for them.

That said, netcraft says Apache still runs almost 25% of the internet, which is no small stake: https://news.netcraft.com/archives/category/web-server-surve...
