Has the appearance of the search box changed recently?

It might be my misunderstanding, but I feel like the search box (in the Start menu) has changed recently. For example, when I press the Windows key and search for random apps like Chrome or Edge, the UI seems to have become flatter overall. It used to look cleaner before, but now it feels different. Is it just me, or has something actually changed?

    The latest update for Windows 11 has adjusted the style of the taskbar search box. You can disable it using vivetool /disable /id:4**.
