npm took up most of yarn's significant changes to the point where I switched back years ago.

I think the Jest situation is a little different as it was the incumbent not the challenger.

React is similar in the it's become an incumbent, though probably with less marketshare. Ironically I believe the lack of a virtual DOM is a big selling point for Svelte (sp?) which my frontend developers are really excited about.

I mostly use npm, but does npm have anything like yarn's workspaces or ability to patch dependencies with project-specific changes?

Those are the "killer features" for yarn IMO, and why I think a lot of projects using it would have friction moving to npm
