I have a pig farm where they fall through a layer of lava and die on the floor below. I tried it today and the pigs didn't fall through and instead died in the lava.

What version?
With all the changes being made, it would not be overly surprising if the rate at which mobs fell through lava had also been changed… if you had the time-in-lava set to just perfectly kill by fall damage without cooking (or something similarly finely tuned) any change might be keepingthem in the lava blade too long.

Mobs die faster in 1.14.1 lava. My guardian farm used a 4 block deep lava blade to weaken the guardians, but now they die just before dropping out of the lava. I reduced it to 3 block depth and it seems to be working, although they still die faster than before
Do mobs not fall through lava anymore?

If you drop pigs from 6 blocks up they will fall through at least a thin lava blade.
Otherwise they just flounder around on top until they die.
Give them a fire resist potion and they'll stand there forever (well 8 minutes anyway.)
Tested in 1.14.1
Just testing.
OK, that has changed then.
This world was started in 1.8 and is now 1.14.1.
They used to drop from 2 blocks up through a full layer of lava and then burn on the ground 2 blocks below that.
Now they stay in the lava until they die and of course the pork chops burn too.
Thanks
