Is handshake capturing dead?

By default, K A L I Linux is not well configured and it is mandatory to customize it.

The ALFA AWUS036NH is a good adapter. Unfortunately it is EOL:

I've tested it and it is working as expected:

airodump-ng and aireplay-ng have not received updates since two years:
https://github.com/aircrack-ng/aircrack-...irodump-ng
https://github.com/aircrack-ng/aircrack-...ireplay-ng

Most of these scripts are outdated since a long time and nearly all scripts (like wifite) are running airodump-ng/aireplay-ng in background to attack a target. If aireplay-ng fails, the scripts fail too:

Additional several scripts are running outdated tools like iwconfig and ifconfig:

This outdated tools use WIRELESS EXTENSIONS (WEXT) which is not longer recommended:

If you want to use hashcat to recover the PSK of a WPA1/2 network, than this is a good starting point:

But to answer your initial question: "Is handshake capturing dead?"
Yes it is
- if you don't know what you are doing
- if you are running outdated tools
- if you use scripts that you don't know what they do
- if you use default settings or the default configuration
