Obergefell won, so that gay marriage legal at the federal level. That meant that LGBTQ+ politics shifted to its next major battle, which was legal nondiscrimination protections based on gender identity. Also, I believe LGBTQ+ identification doubled since 2012? Might be even earlier but I do know that it double in at least 10 years, which means more visibility.
