We will check all deprecated features.

Aggregated Newsfeed
This feature is deprecated but still available in read only mode. For customers who are currently using the aggregated newsfeed, Microsoft recommends considering options such as Team News, Communication Sites, Yammer and/or Teams. The Site Feed feature on an individual site is not impacted and will continue to be supported across all versions of the product.
Custom help
Microsoft is moving away from the legacy on-premises SharePoint help engine, which is based on help collections being installed in the on-prem farm. Custom help is based on the legacy SharePoint help engine which will remain supported, but deprecated, for the SharePoint Server 2019 release.
Groove Sync App
The Groove sync app will be deprecated but remain supported, for the SharePoint Server 2019 release. The Groove sync app is used for syncing documents between the SharePoint server and personal devices. In SharePoint, the server 2019 introduces support for the new OneDrive app, which provides a more reliable and feature-rich syncing experience.
InfoPath Services
The InfoPath service is deprecated but Services will remain supported. Microsoft advises that the customer explore alternatives for this feature. Microsoft will ensure that the InfoPath 2013 client will work with SharePoint Server 2019 for the remainder of the client supported lifecycle (2026). InfoPath 2013 client will not be supported beyond that timeframe.
Machine Translations (and Variations)
The Machine Translation Service will remain supported but deprecated for the SharePoint Server 2019 release.
SharePoint Designer
Microsoft SharePoint Designer (SPD), is formerly known as Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer. Microsoft will ensure that SharePoint Designer 2013 will work with SharePoint Server 2019 for the remainder of the client support lifecycle (2026). SharePoint Designer 2013 will not be supported beyond that timeframe.
PerformancePoint Services
PerformancePoint Services will remain supported, but deprecated, for the SharePoint Server 2019. Microsoft recommends that the customer explore Microsoft
PowerBI as an alternative to PerformancePoint Services.
Site Manager
The Site Manager feature will be supported, but it is deprecated in SharePoint Server 2019.The main functionality of Site Manager is now available in “Modern file move to”.
Lists Web Service
The above SOAP endpoints in the Lists web service depend on the Microsoft Sync Framework, which were necessary to support the Groove sync app. But the Groove sync app is now a deprecated feature, these SOAP endpoints are also being deprecated for the SharePoint Server 2019.
Removed features
A removed feature is no longer supported by Microsoft in SharePoint Server 2019. A feature labelled as “removed” is unsupported even if the feature is still present in the product.
Code-Based Sandbox Solutions
Sandbox solutions are customization packages that can be used to deploy customizations to SharePoint on the site collection level. Support for code-based sandbox solutions will be removed from SharePoint 2019.
Microsoft recommends to explore
SharePoint add-ins as an alternative, which are fully supported for both SharePoint on-premises and SharePoint Online.

Digest Authentication
Digest authentication is a method which is an enhanced version of Single factor Authentication.
Microsoft recommends to users who are still using Digest authentication to move into alternatives such as Kerberos, NTML, SAML etc.
Incoming email automatic mode
Microsoft is deprecating the IIS 6 Management compatibility features in Internet Information Services (IIS). The automatic mode of the SharePoint incoming email feature relies on IIS 6 APIs to manage the IIS SMTP service.
There are no alternative APIs that exist to manage the IIS SMTP service, so Microsoft is removing support for the automatic mode in the incoming email feature of SharePoint Server 2019. Microsoft recommends that the customer use advanced mode instead, which allows you to manually manage the IIS SMTP service and drop folder.
Multi-Tenancy
Microsoft continues to innovate in SharePoint Online, an increasing amount of SharePoint multi-tenancy capabilities are building dependencies on cloud technologies that aren’t available in on-premises environments. The cost and complexity of providing an on-premises alternative has become too expensive, so it will not be available in the SharePoint 2019.
Visio Services – Silverlight Based Rendering
Microsoft Silverlight-based and PNG-based options are used for rendering Visio diagrams and as Microsoft has already stated that the Microsoft Silverlight will no longer be supported. This means that Silverlight-based rendering will no longer be supported in SharePoint Server 2019. Visio Services will only render Visio diagrams using the PNG-based technology.
Tags and Notes
The Tags and Notes feature has been removed from SharePoint Server 2019. This means that users cannot create new tags and notes or access any existing ones.
