Multithreading is exactly where linked lists are useful as in the implementation of MPSC, MPMC, SPMC, and so on it allows one to safely construct objects out of vire of other threads then use a CAS to append the new item to the list making it visible for other threads to consume even without needing to allocate additional memory.

They're also pretty useful for free-list structures which overwrite entries to be removed (they're scheduled for deletion thus assumptiong here is that the object is now dead) with linked list nodes that would fit in that space thus never needing to allocate any additional as you can reuse existing space.
