USB 1.x type B definitely wasn’t short lived, I’ve picked up new devices with a B connector in recent years.
The B connector you pretty much never see is the USB 2.0 one. Pretty much all devices I’ve seen use the wide version of USB Micro-B or, you know, USB C.

Are you thinking of the USB 3.0 versions of Type B? 1.0 and 2.0 should be pretty much indistinguishable.
