The entities card no longer changes the colors of icons based on states, except for lights.
If you would like the old behavior back or want to disable it for lights too, you can do so with the option `state_color`.
Other cards still show colors for states, and we added this functionality for a lot more entity types (domains).
Reasoning comes from a request, to make icons to become yellow for all types when an entity is active, and not for just a few entity types. However, this would get out of control very quickly, as shown in the screenshot below.

Yellow icon color on everything, isn't the solution either.
</p>
So, that is why we disabled it, by default, for all entity types, except lights. However, we did add a new option: `state_color`.
Using this option, you can decide if you want to old behavior back, add it to more entity types or maybe even disable it for lights too!
Other cards will now display icons from more domains with an active color.
