Technology goes through it's ups and downs. Vinyl was supposed to be dead but 30 years after CD's showed up there was a renewed interest.
Lots of technology goes through the same cycle: good for while, then it gets replaced by newer technology, then slowly it works it's way back into being relevant again. It never reaches it's old peaks but still can do OK decades after being declared dead.
Examples include horn speakers and tube amps. Both thrown to the curb by the mainstream and suddenly became relevant again.
There's evidently a small group of photographers who rediscovered making prints in a darkroom. I'd expect film to have a minor rise again in 10 or 20 years, too. It's just the way tech seems to mature.
