A deprecation means that Microsoft intends to remove the feature or capability from a future major release. This means that you need to have a future plan which includes taking care of those parts in your solutions that uses features or capabilities which are being deprecated. A good rule of thumb is of course NOT to use deprecated features, functionality etc. in new projects. For existing projects, depending from situation to situation a good rule of thumb might be if it works, don't fix it. Whenever you create something new though, it is a good idea to keep technical debth in mind and some old parts might needs to be renewed.
If it works, don't touch it!
It is important though to have a strategic plan for how to deal with deprecations. Sometimes dates are announced for when something will stop working. It might be the removal of an important endpoint which you use in your code. You need to keep an eye open for such dates and as soon as you have a date that means something will stop working, then you really need a plan to replace it.
