It depends on what you're looking at. I develop electronics hardware, and it is still incredibly difficult to get a lot of ICs.
Texas instruments still has not caught up, and their chips are used just about everything, including on graphics cards.

yeah that's fair, the embedded market (both power, microcontrollers, and others) is still fucked up, but, the leading-edge market is in oversupply at this point and companies are starting to pull back production hard.
it's really not and actually the slowdown is so bad that AMD has had to reduce production, as well as other companies reducing memory/flash wafer starts etc.
it's not just intel or fake news, availability really hasn't been a problem for a year or more at this point, and if anything we're starting to shift into the "glut" phase of the bullwhip cycle.
