| No? There is originality between a fetishization/bastardization of minimalism on one side and cookie cutter LLM web design on the other. |

| ▲ | Avicebron 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | idk, you tell me, I can tell from your blog that you've adopted the trend. I'm probably much older than you, so I've seen the progression of these things since the internet as we know it existed. So I sort of understand the roots of the styling that people are adopting and can see it for what it is, which is trying to signal a minimalism but missing the point in the process. | | |
