I'd say's it's completely the opposite.
Yes, microservices might've been the trend in late 2010s, but after everyone got burned by it with unnecessary complexity (unless you're at "Google" scale), people just went back by being productive building modular "monolithic" architectures, and using "microservices" only when absolutely necessary.
