Then if no one you know uses LaTeX anymore, how does one render
mathematical equations other than by drawing the image of math and
embedding such images directly?
The internet has people who use LaTeX. You don't have to know
them. LaTeX is used by R and other systems to format documentation,
so many linux systems have texlive packages installed
One of the contributions of TeX is a machine friendly way to encode maths.
Many "word processors" and markup languages have menus of math symbols,
but also allow you to enter equations using TeX markup.
See: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Math/Help:Formula for examples
LaTeX and others (ConTeXt) support sections, chapters, bibliographies,
indexes, etc. that are handled differently if at all by other processors and markups.
