Kentucky now uses the A1B234 format. Don't know why did they replace it such early...
They also now have flat plates, which I don't really care for

The older design with the chunky font was best

Yeah, I noticed that a month or two ago. I was wondering why they did that when the other format was perfectly fine. Any ideas?

I've started seeing it not that long ago too, and I don't really know why except to maybe save money? But IDK if it's really cheaper for the state or not.

I have no idea lol. It would be interesting if it were cheaper in some way, though!

Sacrificing plate quality (aesthetically) for money - a classic procedure. However, have in mind that Kentucky does not use the 3M font but its font is quite custom. And Ohio appears to have joined the flat plate party with the 3M font which is something I personally don't like that much

Is the 3M one the more common one I see on states like TN or NJ? Or is it the other one? Just wondering.

Tennessee and New Jersey do not use that generic 3M font characteristic for flat plates, but instead use more legible fonts. The same applies in Alabama, Arizona, Delaware, Georgia, Montana, South Dakota, etc.
What I'm meaning about the "3M font" is an artificially condensed variant of some Zurich Extra Condensed font first seen on flat plates and used since at least the early 2000s, nowadays in Washington, DC, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Texas and Wyoming (+ plausibly Ohio since Dec 29, 2021), as shown below:
It looks like that Kentucky uses it but it does NOT; a completely custom font apparently made by Avery is used instead.
