Not everyone worships every god. Most of them are very minor deities, like the god of a particular river. You might worship that kami if you fish in that river or use it for transportation, but not if you live somewhere else. Likewise, I don’t worship Trump or the Kardashians, but many people do.
Are they actively worshipped as gods though, or are they simply remnants of the past?
