Do you have any suggestions on how I could query the blockchain via web3 or something so that I can get a list of deployed contracts?

not a duplicate, the older question just points to etherscan. it has no suggestions regarding a programmatic query. – rosul Nov 24 '17 at 10:35
For a list of deployed contracts, one way is to get all transaction receipts and print the contractAddress.
For a list of all contracts, since contracts can create contracts, you would need to execute the EVM bytecode of every transaction to see what contracts are created by a transaction, similar to How to get contract internal transactions.
