The best of luck to you in what comes next.
Personally i don't really agree with this perspective of a stagnating community. There was never this age where the majority of web apps were properly engineered, in fact they used to be much worse, and before that desktop development was an even bigger mess (visual basic, anyone?). I see a definite progression. The current "average" architecture is some sort of client-side mvc layer on top of a set of web services. That's immensely better than yesteryear's php messes.
