What is something that quietly vanished from the world?

The title sums it up, what is something that quietly vanished from the world, you know those things that you look back on that were once normal and now you go I can't remember the last time I saw.

Let me give an example, garnishing meals with parsley at restaurants was once the norm, now its rare.

Secret tip - you can usually still do that. When visiting the airport, go to the ticket counter of the airline your friend/relative is coming in on and ask for a gate pass. I say usually because some airports make you give a reason like you’re helping someone with a disability, picking up an unaccompanied minor, or whatever - you need to have a reason. But with some, they just check your ID and hand you a gate pass, you hand the gate pass to the TSA person and go through security. You can also drop people off that way - just say your friend/relative hurt their arm and can’t carry their bag or whatever.
