Great, I’m the jerk that shows up a few years afterward, inspecting the errant arm and elephant trunk wondering what the actual F the original programmer was thinking.
Then I cut off the trunk and slap a dog nose on it because I hate VB.

WHAT HAVE I BECOME!?
Who let my conscience post online?
I started (professional) coding with VB3 and loved it … entirely because I had been using Turbo Basic up to that point.
Does anyone still use any version of VB?
VB .NET is actually not complete madness as it’s just C# with another skin
The answer to “does anyone” questions is almost always “yes.”

I’m pretty sure if I asked “does anybody still use Turbo Basic?” the answer would be “no”.
Depends what you mean by “use”. I’d be shocked if there aren’t any retro-computing hobbyist groups that still dabble in it.
Or if some airline out there isn’t absolutely dependent on it somewhere in the stack
