Sadly, Latinx is still used all over the place. Google turns up 94,800 instances of "latinx community" just in the past year:

In fact, when I query for results and specify date ranges for each year (using Tools > Any time > Custom range), I get:
2018: 4,410 results
2019: 7,070 results
2020: 15,900 results
2021: 17,500 results
2022: 21,000 results
2023: 34,300 results
2024: 88,600 results
Yeah, Google probably has a recency bias in its search corpus, but this is still a large amount of recent and ongoing usage.
Google Trends doesn't show a clear decline either: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=2018-01-01%202...
Ah, statistics again. Wow, massive numbers. What happens if you add the terms latino and latina?

Right, it barely moves above the zero line.
