It was not abandoned entirely. Google used the segmented registers to implement NaCl on x86.
But again, programming with far/near pointers in Borland C++ in 1992 was too painful. A company where I got my first programming job abandoned that and used 32 pointers for everything even if it harmed performance and lead to fatter binaries. But then again, C++ was a new thing then and the company was totally sold on the idea of objects leading to tight coupling of data and code, when segments require things like data-oriented programming.
