I am no expert, though I play one on TV. I think it is simply a matter of taste and changing norms. In the sixties popcorn ceilings were very hip, but like paneling, linoleum, avocado appliances, pink bathroom fixtures, Formica, etc. it is not considered “in style” today. Thanks to DIY and HGTV, everyone wants the open concept, with granite or quartz, stainless appliances, and room for a pool. The popcorn ceiling will not make your life better or worse unless the eye rolls of your guests bother you.
