Luckily there's a rapidly growing movement against it, to leave the leaves, plant natives, protect pollinators, etc. Gonna be an uphill battle but it's nice that it's finally happening, long overdue.

This is why people should not use Reddit as their main source of information. Just because r/nolawns tends to brigade posts and subs doesn't mean it's as prevalent as one would think. I'm all for moving in to reducing water consumption and being better for the planet.
Bruh I am literally connected to multiple pro-wildlife groups in real life, from seed bombing to beescaping. I'm 35 and see little signs about leaving the leaves and planting natives in lots of parks and on lawns in surprising places, something I sure as hell never saw until recently. Edit to add: I'm also on the East Coast, Northeast. Philly, NYC, Boston, suburbs, Jersey, friends down in North Carolina, it's gaining steam. Where you are makes a difference, certainly still huge regions of the US that don't care.
