Stormwind and Orgrimmar haven't been main capitals since the first expansions 20 years ago lol, people usually only stayed there for the auction houses.
It's been a moderately populated place on and off since then. But since Dragonflight there has been an auction house in the expansion zone, and now also in The War Within city. So there's next to no reason to even stay in Stormwind/Orgrimmar anymore.
And that's really sad. The expansions added new content and areas which was great but also made the world so big that it feels empty. I think server phasing also had something to do with that, but with the dwindling player base compared to peek times, even the major cities in the expansions feel more empty than ever.
