Ours was built in 2018, uses an absorption fridge. They're lighter (assuming that you're going to carry propane anyway), and they don't need electricity (though they can run on it). Though you can get compressor models that run on 12VDC, I'm guessing most rigs with compressors don't park far from an outlet. But I'm not the one to ask on that. I do know that when we're running off solar and batteries, it's nice to eliminate one more thing draining the batteries.
