Hello @socal_nana Welcome to the community! In fact the behaviour of striped candies has not changed at all over the years in Candy Crush. I wonder if you are missing something, such as a blocker that won't allow stripes to get through (those black and red canes for example)? Perhaps you could tell us which level you are playing and where you are experiencing problems with the striped candies not wiping out a row? There will be a reason we might be able to explain to you.
