I randomly pulled up stripe.com alternatives [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] - literally all of them have the same style of global menu, unwanted animations as you scroll, big text, big images, and I guarantee you none of them will work properly in an older browser, (try a 2 yr old mobile os).

Here are first 3 sites I pulled from producthunt - [5] [6] [7] - again literally the same structure and problems.

The author clearly mentions this as a problem, just too many animations, for no reason at all. Are you telling me these weren't inspired from awwwards?
Design has gone to the gutters - material design/windows 11 design/liquid glass design. All of them are sacrificing usability over unwanted animations.
I seriously miss the days of blackberry and nokia. Usability was paramount those days.
> Long-known-to-be-harmful trends like scrolljacking and replacing the cursor ... seem to appear on well more than half of the Awwwards site; but they are fortunately rare on the web at large
