If 'cursed' is derogatory, then it seems unfair/mean to call sites cursed just for not keeping up with current web design trends. Shouldn't we be better than that?

Not exactly. "Cursed" in modern slang is more like something weird and unsettling in a way that's probably funny and may or may not actually be bad.

[joemi]

Your description sure sounds derogatory.

[junon]

"Cursed" comes from meme culture. It's not derogatory.

[joemi]

How isn't it derogatory? It seems to me to be something to laugh at (not with) and/or be afraid of.

[junon]

Nope, it has kind of an obscure meaning, such as "unusual" or "interestingly strange". Blessed is the antonym, meaning "cathartic" or "wholesome".
