If only. :-(

Since my company uses monitors until they expire from themselves, VGA is still a pretty common component. Power cables are still standard on monitors, so these haven't changed. I'm fairly sure the smaller variant (lower right) is still used in some prehistoric (but still in use printers). And our cash registers use 4 small com ports (and those things are still there on newer printers, so it's not outdated either).
I wish I could say I haven't seen the larger com-ports, but alas: just two days ago I had to look for a COM-> UTP connector because this cash register printer had no other way to communicate.

But ey...at least PS2 keyboards and mice are finally phasing out. Not in favor of USB 3.1, though.

I have a 2021 Dell monitor, It uses VGA port my cannon printer uses a 2 wire power cord and my 2020 asus mainboard have VGA, D-9 con port and PS/2 kyeboard-mouse connectors, they are today defacto standard.

Yes the USB-C is a first attemp to reeplace all of they but we are years to that happen, I even think mac never that happen, today they are using a USB-C like connector no compatible with standard, so...
