Popcorn ceiling is a design that was popular in the 80s.
Its textured appearance hides minor imperfections, and it requires less maintenance overall than smooth ceilings. It also has a different aesthetic feel to it, as the texture traps natural light and gives a duller, cooler appearance to the room. Popcorn ceilings are made by spraying the ceiling with a solution that hardens into the desired texture.
It was used a lot in the 70s and 80s due to ease of application. Since drywall needs to be perfectly even & level, the popcorn ceiling allowed minor imperfections that didn't detract from the texture's aesthetic.

While popcorn ceilings were popular in the 20th century, modern designs prefer smoother ceilings. Popcorn ceilings have a nasty tendency to stain yellow as they get older and exposed to more airborne particles and smoke. Additionally, repairing the ceiling is more challenging since the popcorn texture needs to be removed, the ceiling repaired, and the texture reapplied. Popcorn ceilings also attract dust particles, preventing proper ventilation and providing additional health risks to the home's inhabitants. The smooth surfaces of modern ceilings don't usually attract air particles, allowing for healthier air quality.
Since the popcorn ceiling's texture gives it an uneven surface, it traps light more, providing the room with a more subdued and colder feel. Any modern renovations usually include repairing the ceiling and removing the dated popcorn texture to replace it with modern aesthetic designs that allow for more natural light. Popcorn ceiling removal can be a dangerous undertaking, especially for older houses. It's best to leave popcorn ceiling removal to the professionals because they have all the equipment to properly seal off the room and work in it safely.
Wallpaper is still popular and allows for a wide variety of customization options. Modern wallpaper styles can let a homeowner play with color, texture, and design to give their home a unique personal touch. Over time, wallpaper can look dated, especially if the walls have taken some hits or nails over the years. With new designs allowing for more customization, it's recommended to remove old wallpaper and give walls a new look to modernize the home's aesthetic. Removing the wallpaper can be a tedious process. If wallpaper was put on drywall, improperly removing it can damage the underlying drywall and increase the project's cost. Therefore, it's a task best left to the skillful hands of the professionals.
