It should still work until 2024.9.
Seems weird that according to telemetry only 25 people in the world were using that, while the GitHub repository linked in the other comment has ~~56 stars and 21 forks~~ 75 issues and 200 pull requests. If it was true, those 25 users are the most passionate in the world.
Same if watching on the ha forums, lots of topics for something used only by 25 people in the world.
Could it be that, because asterisk is difficult to install, only pro users installed that, and pro users always disable telemetry?
Edit: changed metrics for GitHub, indeed stars and forks are pointless numbers, went to watch my GitHub account and saw that completely useless repositories of mine had stars or forks
Lots of people do have telemetry disabled. Kinda disappointing to see it being used as a reason for removing functionality without research first
What other research can you do? You could go on the forum and ask who uses it but that's not going to be any more accurate
