The XQuartz project is an open-source effort to develop a version of the X.org X Window System that runs on Mac OS X. Together with supporting libraries and applications, it forms the X11.app that Apple has shipped with OS X since version 10.5.
Where has it been stated that XQuartz has been discontinued?

Nowhere I can find. I think it is because it hasn't seen an update since 2017 that it has gotten the discontinued label

It is not discontinued, there is a new release from April 2021. The latest version also supports Apple Silicon (M1), and works very well, so frequent updates are not so essential as on some newer, more unstable projects.
