Bootstrap is an answer to a 10 year old question posited by CSS Zen Garden: Can we make the web beautiful? Bootstrap is a great default starting point for a website. Its a great tool for internal development where you may have to write an app but don't want to spend days making it look nice. You can do anything you want with it. If you complain it makes sites look the same, then ask yourself how many of those sites would have just gotten a template from Template Monster a few years back...

Bootstrap is an answer to a 10 year old question posited by CSS Zen Garden: Can we make the web beautiful? If this is the question, then the emphasis needs to be on who "we" is. If it's developers, then yes. If it's an ephemeral "the world" we, then no, I don't think this is the case; people were making beautiful (subjectively, of course) websites before bootstrap, and will continue to do so afterwards. Most of the designers I know don't use it as a basis unless they're coming onto a project that used it to start with.
