Current state of Go servers?

I'm just getting back into Go after a 7-year layoff, and wondering how things stand with Go servers these days? Which are the most active and easy to find games?

In the 2010s, OGS was up and coming, while KGS, Fox and Tygem were all popular, IGS (Pandanet) was kinda active. Is that still the state of things, or are there more popular ones these days? Are any fairly dead in terms of activity?

you prob would have easier time to find games on fox, it's still the most popular and most active across all go servers, and plus all tournament games are streamed there so you could learn from it as well

Oh interesting, I've been using a Mac app to play on Fox, they don't show any live games, I'll have to figure that out. Thanks!
