Did they change to stop marketing toward kids or just wanted modern?

Multiple reasons. Millennials fell in love with minimalism (they still are) at the start of the 2010s. They liked that coffee house vibe and McDonalds adapted. They loved it in the beginning but now they’re boohooing over the changes. People also started becoming a bit more health conscious so switching to the cleaner look to try and convince folks it’s not McDonald’s.
