Did things change with DX12?

Just asking because this article is quite clear about how DirectX is all about COM: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/prog-dx-with-...

> The Microsoft Component Object Model (COM) is an object-oriented programming model used by several technologies, including the bulk of the DirectX API surface. For that reason, you (as a DirectX developer) inevitably use COM when you program DirectX.

DirectX yes, Direct3D no.

I am not sure about D3D9, but 10 and 11 and 12 are not COM.
