I had exactly *once* in my years playing where I almost ran out of mana in a dungeon, it was a Stone Vigil run where I just told the Tank to go as hard as they wanted, wtw every time, I had to spam Adlo to get through, I never saw my mana above 8k that entire run, we were in and out in under 10 minutes, absolute 10/10 dungeon run.

Maybe that was more of an issue in ARR/HW days, to my knowledge mana management was much more complicated then, but not in the current game.
Probably it's been a while since you played really low-level dungeons. For example, WHM mana regen is ass before Lillies and thin air. Being mindful of a healer's mana is a good mindset to have.
Regardless of what it used to be and how it is, some people don't know how to optimally play this game. Shocker, I know..
