is event.target deprecated?

Question

MDN Web Docs specifications table for event.target indicates that it's status is obsolete in DOM level 2 and DOM4. does it mean it's deprecated and I no longer should use it?
If so what should I use instead?
I know my question is somehow ridiculous, cause event.target is so important and we use it everywhere, but I couldn't find something useful on the net, specially W3.org, and I'm still obsessed with the word Obsolete :), so I preferred to ask here. thanks

Answer 1

You're misinterpreting MDN.

It says that the DOM4 and Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Events Specification's definitions of Event.target are obsolete, not that Event.target itself is obsolete.

The DOM (Living Standard) specification is not marked as obsolete and you should use that definition.
