I do not know about you, but I already saw it all. If earlier, any person who mastered FrontPage, created his own design studio, now he is “working” on launching a social network, blog, etc.
Probably this is normal, and in general the usual evolutionary process. Only recently has it acquired a hysterical character with a truly Russian scale. It’s not prestigious to do corporate websites, it’s not fashionable ... naturally, because you’re no longer surprised by the usual website.
It is much easier and more interesting to collect free web-dance scripts, put it all on the server - the project is ready. Hundreds of students, inspired by
such articles, sweep the noodles off the shelves, nothing that is nothing ... but how much adrenaline and attention to your person. And at the exit we will get hundreds of “original” social and not-so-great projects :).
I work in a studio. Recently, we are increasingly being approached with ideas - the insanity of which lies on the surface, and in order to understand this, it is not necessary to be an analyst. Gentlemen, before you call something a startup, objectively evaluate your idea and capabilities. To make a successful project is not easy at all, whatever you are told and no matter how convincing you are.
