It looks like they smile more now than in the past. Maybe the quality of life gotten better and they smile more?

If Russians smile more (I do not know really), then the most likely explanation is a mixing of the USA culture into ours.
I being Russian just do not keep smile on my face when everything is just fine. I'll keep smiling when things go especially good. I'd laugh evilly^W when they go in unexpectedly good way. But small variations from a statistical average is not enough of an emotional reason to change my facial expression.
Statostical average is the key. If things made a habit of being extremely good, I'd stop smiling when they are extremely good. I'd wait for more exciting occasion.
It's hard to punch a face via Zoom, so you can smile freely, until we meet really.
