It's not XMPP that's deprecated, it's the whole CCS (first link) that's being replaced with Firebase (second link). The XMPP api is still present in the replacement.

While not fully consistent the XMPP api is referred to as legacy on much of FCM documentation. https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/server

You also misunderstand what this api is referring to. These are APIs for your server to connect to Google's. This is not a direct http and xmpp connection to mobile devices. That's all abstracted away from this.
