Ehh, 2013 was more like a transition. January until April 2013 were still mostly the Early 2010s, but May to August felt like something was changing. By September, the transition ended with a shift. 8th Gen consoles, iOS 7, GTA 5, Lorde, Vine, and early Trap music.

Lana Del Ray kicked off the indie girl sound back in 2012 and most smartphone users use android rather than iPhone as well. The only big change I can really think of is social media becoming more fragmented and mayyyyyybe 8th gen starting(and I say maybe because 8th gen was a very small leap compared to 7th gen).

Those aren't that big changes. They're not big, they're huge changes that catapulted us right into mid-10s culture. IOS 7's all-flat design still had a major buzz whether you had an iPhone or not.  And Android KitKat from 2013 was noticeably cleaner, flatter and more minimalist than Jelly Bean from 2012 anyway (although not to IOS 7 level).

Flat design was coming up in 2012 and 2013 with Windows 8, iOS 7 and Android KitKat but it was really 2014 when it became the main style. 2015 cemented it with Windows 10, which people actually liked unlike Windows 8.
In 2021 it's now a mix between the two styles, Windows 11 and Android 12 cemented that. iOS 15 is still full on flat design tho (Apple needs to get with the times! They still have full on 2018-style notches on their new phones too lol). I actually like the mix better than full on skeuo-design.

Yes 2013 had a major shift. It was the biggest shift in the 2010s. It's funny how dated 2013 is now. The year of a blend of early 2010s and mid 2010s trends is dated now especially now that even the mid 2010s is far behind us.

What's the difference between a shift and a transition? 🤨 It's the same thing to me.

It did feel like the start of something new but i didn't truly feel the mid 10s energy until the year after. 2016 seems like a bigger shift with politics getting all toxic and divisive. 2011 arguably does as well for a plethora of reasons.

The way I see it, 2013 is the transition, 2014 is the shift. 2016 is the transition, 2017 is the shift, etc.

It's like a filler episode if 2020 was the new season premiere. 2021 does feel like filler but tbh most transition years do while you're living in them. We see years like 2013 and 2016 as huge because we can look back and see how they affected later years. Transition years have a lot of holdovers too, which 2021 has a lot of. 2020 was a huge shift but for all the wrong reasons and caused pop culture to stagnate, in 2021 movies and concerts came back so it started to move along again. It'll be more clear in 2022. Or atleast I hope.

It's probably the least transitional year in record time. 2018 and 2019 I wouldn't consider true transition years but they changed far more stuff than this year.

I agree 2021 just felt barebones in general. I made a thread about it.
