Could that be homogenization caused by the rise of social media in the ~2010 timeframe? Where individuality is being eliminated by the stifling conformity of being constantly visible and everyone knowing your stuff? Things which used to be private and personal. And people are playing it safe by conforming to avoid being rejected by their peers. Thus creating a hive-mind which has spread to every aspect of life, including design and aesthetics?
