Pretty much. Like noted in the OP, the overall spirit of the rules/policies are exactly the same. It's just worded very differently:


 
- There's now ten rules instead of twelve
 
- Several rules have been merged/split/rearranged

 
- A few rules have been further clarified/expanded upon  
- A lot of extra/unnecessary wording has been removed.
 
As for new stuff, really the only things in there that aren't in the current rules are:
 
1) Don't roleplay in image comments
 
2) Don't publicly out people who are wishing to remain anonymous/use an alternative name
 
3) Don't complain about how much you dislike a certain theme when you could just as easily filter it


 
But to be clear, those are all rules now. They're just not very clearly stated, or kinda just implied by other rules. They've just been explicitly added now so that there's no confusion.
