It seems like you know a lot about design, so what's wrong with Stripe-styled websites? I'm a big fan of their design. Also, what does "Bumla-lizing" mean? When I Google it, I get this comment.

He thinks homogenization is bad. You're a big fan of a design that's now copied over and over again, at digital agencies, it's a default client ask. They see x and assume x is expensive and wants x, then thousands of Indian devs and designers spend their man hours to replicate it, therefore we further pollute the internet with the same regurgitation of perceived good taste.

It's like saying you like a pop song that broke through, it's okay to like a pop song. But then you have to live through a dearth of similar pop songs over and over again for awhile.

He also made a typo, he meant Bulma CSS.

Homogenization is not limited to software UI design. Consumer electronics and appliances, retail fashion etc. are globally homogenized. That's just how the world works.

I was referring to Bulma CSS framework: https://bulma.io/
