Many projects still predominantly use Hyperscript with the option to use JSX (including Mithril and Hyperapp, and others like RE:DOM, snabbdom to name a few). Even React has an option to use it if you want to skip the JSX compile-step. So I wouldn't say we're necessarily moving away from it.
Personally, I prefer Hyperscript. It took maybe a day for me to get over its perceived ugliness and actually appreciate that it's plain, valid JavaScript.
