They’re only killing the crappy store/UWP version that nobody used anyway and only caused confusion. The normal OneNote bundled in Office isn’t going anywhere as far as I know.
That said, I’ve moved a lot of my note taking to Obsidian. It’s not a perfect replacement but it’s a fantastic markdown editor and now I use both for different use cases.
It was a really good app for quite a bit and had the best inking experience compared to the non-UWP version. A few years back they announced merging the features to the Win32 version and it has since been more or less on par now.
I use OneNote quite frequently at work. It’s so much more than a “handwriting app”… Hell, I use it often enough that I started using it at home years ago. However, I much prefer FOSS alternatives for my personal and home use, so I use Joplin Notes paired to a backup server I run on my home lab, that way they sync across all my devices just like OneNote does.
I use Joplin and OneNote, on an MS Surface. OneNote handles hand writing great, but it’s also just a notes app that works great with typing and pictures and everything.

Obsidian with self hosted live sync is what I switched to and found it’s actually better.

I’ve found Joplin acceptable.

I wouldn’t exactly call that the hallmark of OneNote, but okay. Have you tried Saber?
They’re just moving to the app store version.
