    How can one disagree?

    Sites don't need to be so custom anymore. The design of almost all new websites is pretty much the same. It all needs to be laid out in a certain way if you want your content to collapse correctly for mobile devices. Everything's standardized. That's good for content-creation and usability, but not good if you make your money designing websites.

    Creativity is decreasing, but the result is a cleaner more functional web. I don't know what to make of it. I feel completely replaceable now (by templates and cheaper "designers"), yet I got what I wished for... a cleaner, prettier web that works.

    The only places to experiment seem like promotional websites (new movies, album releases). Temporary stuff. But most of the time people just want some information or to buy something, and standardized websites just work better for that.

    • i would say most simple websites. prob the ones for custom work like you mentioned but also startup companies. with advance web features,yurimon
