CSS has gotten great, but I feel things have gone in opposite direction for general web dev.

Careful cascading styles and clean and readable markup have gone straight out the window.

Like with all things, it depends!

Since HTML5’s introduction of a bunch of new elements, I like to think markup has the potential to be a lot more readable and semantic now than it ever did when I first starting making websites in the 90s, even/especially given such a broad new range of element types.

Really? Tools like React and Angular have made my life much easier when it comes to styling and readable markup.
