It's still popular - the player count has been at a steady pace for the past few years. According to SACNR monitor, Russians account for the huge portion of the SA-MP playerbase these days.
The only thing that seems to be dying is the community. Activity on the forums has died down with nobody to fill the huge gap that used to be 12,000+ active members (now 6,902 at the time of posting). Most of the new players coming to SA-MP speak little to no English, and because of this we are seeing less posts on the forum, aswell as less contributions. This is the reason why people are claiming SA-MP is dead - the community is declining.
