XHTML-Doctype in Websites still valid to use?

im just checking a website and the html starts with:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

This is not used today in a small web-project with no special functions. Is this correct? And if its still used, what is the reason?

XHTML 1.0 is outdated (it is explicitly marked as superseded) but the specification still exists, so it is technically valid.

We can't usefully speculate on why some site has been written using it.
