DeX still exists! I think the lack of USB monitors and dongles in the real world makes it so that very few people use it, but if you've got a higher end Samsung device andd access to a dongle, more people should definitely give it a go.

You don't need USB monitors, there are plenty of cheap USB-C to DMI/DP dongles and adapters. If you already have a USB-C dock for your laptop, then the same one can be used for the DEX. The reason it's not more wildly used it's poor marketing and low consumer interest as the PC usage has been on the steady decline.
Perhaps, but those adapters often lack USB ports in my experience. USB-C docks also aren't always reliable, because many of them use the accursed DisplayLink protocol to do video.
I think the general consumer just isn't aware that this is an option. Perhaps Samsung should offer free dongles with their flagship phones to build a market, because it's a real shame people don't know about DeX.

Most casual average people at home don't even have PCs with monitors anymore these days. Most people who aren't on their computer all day, just have a solo laptop with no other peripherals making DEX pretty useless to the average joe
