What mainstream languages, especially if standardized or open sourced, have you seen be completely abandoned?

Even Cobol, Fortran and Lisp are still active.

Javascript as this moment probably has the highest number of programmers using it. It is standardized and has several competing state-of-the-art OSS implementations. It's going go be with us, at least as legacy code, for decades :)

Agree. Legacy code.
