I’d argue football has had more.

Apparently this is no longer a game you can play in a mall as it's considered objectification.

I think you've got most of them there. A few other somewhat significant changes to the game in recent times:
Duckworth-Lewis (introduced in 1997)
Chucking definition and testing procedures
Free Hits for No-Balls
Fielding restrictions (Bodyline, LO cricket)
Bouncer restrictions
'Dangerous Bowling' laws
Restrictions on bat dimensions
Zing bails
'Handling the Ball' being incorporated into the 'Obstructing the Field' dismissal
Actually anything to do with limited-overs cricket at all is pretty recent. It only came into existence in the 1960s. Coloured clothing, white balls, games under lights, etc.
Most of these recent changes only apply at the International level, but I'm sure that domestic/club cricket formats around the world have all undergone significant changes too. Their changes will be specific only to the local competition tho.
Don't know about football tho
