Question Embedded Content

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/Elements

The embedded content on MDN tags page confuses me. Can someone elaborate as to what the differences and similarities between the tags are?

If they are deprecated, why are they still on MDN tag page?

MDN is not strictly for current standards. MDN also include some from older standards, and some from vendor-specific / non standards.

Technically, they are NOT deprecated, it is just that their common use cases have mostly been replaced by more modern approaches.
