What happened to all the proof of stake stuff? Did that just fall out of vogue?
Ethereum made the switch from PoW to PoS in 2022. It was called The Merge https://ethereum.org/roadmap/merge

It’s unlikely that Bitcoin will ever do the same, for the same reason Ethereum was created separately in the first place: they (BTC community in general) don’t want to add or change anything, because they perceive that as diminishing its value. Oh well.
