This immigration attorney has some nice information on her channel. Anyway, she goes through the differences for someone applying for a Green Card from outside the US or if someone is inside the US trying to adjust their status; and even those who already have a Green Card and have stayed out of the country longer than 180 days.

Essentially the burden is being shifted more from the sponsor to you and you would have to post a bond ($8000 minimum). So for those of you who are saying "Good! We don't need lazy people here", be aware that this goes pretty far beyond that and you might need some cash up front later if you adjust your status.
