Yes, I patch. Except that, as others have said, tubeless is making that increasingly redundant. My wife and son have bikes with tubes but I am by far the highest mileage rider in the family and both of my main rides are now tubeless.

Having said that, when I was doing a lot of patching I found that I was getting through the patches much faster than the glue, so I bought some patches in bulk off eBay. I've tried the self-adhesive patches but they don't last nearly as well, IME.
