What if the user is put off from seeing another bootstrapped site? They already have a negative connotation before even trying your product/site. That's UX.

- cluda01 15y agoHow many consumers actually know what a boostrapped site is? More importantly I would say that a non-trivial amount of users do not enjoy and even detest change. For an anecdote look to any change facebook makes. One benefit of bootstrap is that casual users can leverage their understanding of how other bootstrap sites behave thus reducing the amount of new things they have to learn and get used to.
- lojack 15y agoThats probably true. On the one hand you have users getting so used to bootstrap sites that they begin to instinctively know expected behavior and how to navigate other bootstrap sites, which is good UX. Then on the other hand you have a lack of brand, and disinterest because of overuse, which is bad UX. I suppose its a bit of a catch-22.
