Yes, in my neck of the woods it's always used in a negative statement (we don't go there anymore, can't anymore, etc) but some places use it in positive statements kinda like "nowadays" (we go there anymore). Trips me up a bit whenever I encounter it.

Here's an article about it

That is super weird. I haven't ever encountered it. And thanks for the sauce.

I'll be on the lookout anymore.

(That just feels wrong to write!)
