Your site is not "minimalist". There is no such thing.
There's no standard for "minimalist" websites, no way to define what is or isn't minimalist.
There's no need for one either. Your visitors don't require "minimalism" per-se. There's no threshold that you can cross to achieve or reach it. Minimalism is an ideology. It's a heuristic you can use to guide your decision making.
If you find yourself comparing how minimalist you are or competing with others on minimalism, I feel like a better description for that is "maximalism".
