Yes, it's good to know  .. and the comment on their page adds some reasonable explanation:
"... Less than half a year ago, the new ISO Fortran 2023 definition was published. ... Fortran appears to be fast, having native mathematical computation support, mature, and free of charge. Silently, slowly but surely, Fortran gains ground. It is surprising but undeniable. ..."
So, it's time to find my Fortran FFT code which I used back then ...

From what I've heard, its the NAG, the UK-based Numerical Algorithms Group, which has mainly been responsible for the continued usage of Fortran.

I would guess it has to do with supercomputers in large part. Fortran has been used with them for decades and still is. Nvidia has support for CUDA in Fortran and that makes it possible to adapt code to run on GPUs which almost every modern supercomputer has these days.

That's possible indeed ... Perhaps surprisingly, there is a lot of up-to-date information, for example Fortran - Wikipedia, it makes me also think about possible use in LLM training ...

When I learned C I forgot Fortran, and was happy!

I had a class in C and FORTRAN in 87/88. I already knew FORTRAN, and I took it mostly for the C.
The teacher tortured us by assigning programs to be solved in the language least suited to solve the problem.
Write some numerical algorithm in C( not FORTRAN ).
Write some parsing and word counting code in FORTRAN(not C)
Kind of proved the point that you can solve any problem with any language.

Can we compare this with filling a round hole with a square peg? Only that the hole and peg are made of somewhat flexible rubbery material.

1971 1st year university Computer Science - FORTRAN IV on an IBM 360 with the WATFOR compiler which later became WATFIV. Punched cards and IBM golfball terminals.
Then onto IBM 370 then onto CDC 7000 series all with FORTRAN IV. All this mixed with COBOL, PL/1 and assembler.
Currently working with C# and thinking about learning Angular

From the giant invisible flashing sign on the roof. That's the only explanation I have for why they always turn up when I'm in there>*. I suspect they have special goggles to spot when it's on.
