deprecated-tags Now there are 750 questions with deprecated tags. You can compare this with numbers from December 23, August 25, June 2, May 1, etc.
abstract-algebra with 238 questions, 125 if we omit the most frequent algebra-related top-level tags and 57 questions with no top-level tags.
geometry with 363 questions, 213 if we omit frequent geometry-related top-level tags and 116 with no top-level tags at all.
discrete-mathematics contains 149 questions, 67 if we omit co.combinatorics, 30 with no top-level tag at all.
Also deprecating of (convexity) was discussed on meta. It was also suggested to deprecate (continuity).
There are 246 questions where abstract-algebra was removed, 770 questions where geometry was removed, 102 questions where discrete-mathematics was removed, 228 questions where questions where topology was removed.

Some time ago I have posted also short analysis checking how many users contributed to the removal of the deprecated tags: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/10243/2019/6/15
As I have mentioned before, it would be not difficult to prevent deprecated tags at least from being added to new questions: The existing deprecated tags should be blacklisted and Blacklisting (deprecated) tag while they still exist.
top-level-tags There are 110984 questions on the site, 86540 questions with a top-level tag, 91866 questions if we also count (linear-algebra), (graph-theory) and (set-theory).
top-level-tags 22.025% of questions without top-level tags, 17.226% of questions if we take the less strict interpretation.
Here are the links used to find the posts with top-level tags: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/10243/2018/10/27
