It is a circle, from a certain point of view.

I'm not a frontend person and I'm attracted to simplicity. I can certainly believe this is not good, but do you know if there are good minimal alternatives like this? Bootstrap seems a bit complex for basic stuff.

Try Tailwind.

Bulma is smaller. But I feel CSS frameworks are not much flexible, which may explain their decay. Also, frontend modern tooling helps you build your own components with minimal CSS helpers, like Tailwind.
