Nothing changed. Therer are those that hold that ain simcha elah b’vasar v’yayin, and will primarily choose to eat fleishigs on Shavuos. There are those who follow the minhag that fish is also a type of “basar” and who believe that when the Torah was given, the laws of milchigs and fleishigs made all the keilim treif, and it was easier to prepare milchigs for yom tov and not have to worry about shechting animals. So they primarily choose to eat dairy. There is a great deal of simchas yom tov to be found in a slice of cheesecake, wouldn’t you agree?
