I've noticed the same though I don't know what the split is; still lots of VC companies, and more companies of all flavors being started right now.

I've also seen some late stage cos raise a mix of equity and debt at favorable terms; is that becoming more common as part of the same phenomenon?

Rates are low, its preferable to raise debt than a dilutive round for existing investors. Companies that are locked into a prisoners dilemma for spending/market share need to get creative with how they finance their spending.
