In my view 2m FT8 has been transformational with DX possible at any time with QRP. Yes, SSB activity has declined, but I feel sure some sort of scatter is being tapped into.
This is not aircraft scatter as planes are not needed. Personally I think this is troposcatter made possible by the far better sensitivity of FT8.
The photo shows the received stations on typical day with flat conditions. This was 2019 with just an omni antenna!
