Have you noticed that the internet is starting to feel… familiar?
And not in a comforting, nostalgic way - more like déjà vu with a splash of Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V.
It’s because so many websites today are built with the same cookie-cutter website builders. And while they’ve made building a website more accessible, they’ve also made the web strangely uniform. Scroll long enough, and you start to see the same layouts, the same animations, the same stock photos of suspiciously cheerful

Why would someone say that the Yoast plugin has gone “woke”?
Via “Ask David”:
“I am looking for a website builder with SEO built-in, so we’re choosing UltimateWB. But I came across a review for a popular WordPress SEO plugin, Yoast SEO, and the reviewer says they’re cancelling their Yoast Premium subscription because Yoast went far left and is ‘putting out on the internet offensive content,’ promoting ‘woke crap.’ I couldn’t find anything about this online.
