1) Is this a recent change (let's say, under one or two years ago) and
recent kernels lost that ability?
2) Is this GPU or driver-dependent?
All of this has probably to do with the framebuffer console (FBCON)
being replaced with KMSCON:

As usual, if you rely on FBCON, my advice would be to stick to the
oldest
still supported kernel version for now, until KMSCON is stabilized.
Best regards
