I think it's a desire for minimalism. In a world filled with websites saturated with ads, clickbait and constant attention grabs, this is like walking from an overcrowded city street into a Zen garden.

It's an app for browsing lists of anime. How is this not a constant stream of attention grabs?
Well, if someone opens this app their goal probably is browsing lists of anime, so the attention grabs you're hinting at are intentional, and thus not 'attention grabs' in the sense the parent commenter is talking about.
Yeah that makes a lot of sense, my mistake for posting before coffee.
Attention grab here surely means something grabbing your attention away from what you're trying to look at.
