Are people still talking about design patterns in 2022? When I learned to code 'properly' 20ish years ago design patterns where all the rage and we studied them at university and dozens of books where published on the topic. Now I don't think I've heard anybody even use the phrase "design pattern" in connection to programming for several years.

But is that because everybody knows them well enough to just be inherent in the way that they break problems down and build systems to solve them or because they've actually been abandoned as a concept?

I.e. we don't need to talk about it because we all just do it vs not talking about it and not doing it.
