If I understand it correctly:

>What's the other kind of design that isn't like those eastern european apps?

According to the author, the dominant Californian minimalism (Google Material Design & Apple's flatter IOS7 compared to previous versions). This eastern european style would be based on this, but add definitely non-minimalist gradients and shadows and glows and stuff...

>What's dribbbbblization?
