> Are people still using Kyoto Cabinet in new projects?

Cloudflare used to use Kyoto Cabinet[1] and moved to LMDB[1] in 2020; other implementations that I'm familiar with (but don't have a link to share) also use LMDB.

> Are people still using DBM-style storage generally?

It's fairly common in these scenarios, as well as the underlying key-value store for popular software like Consul[3].
