Why is anyone still using XHTML? I thought HTML5 had mercifully obsoleted that.

I for a long time bought into XHTML, just to find out that XHTML documents render slower than plain ol' HTML ones, and pretty much nobody was able to produce proper XHTML anyway.

XHTML was merged into HTML5, and renamed XHTML5.

Personally, I'm still using HTML4/XHTML1, and will continue to do so until HTML5 has stabilized and can be validated.
