Trend Decay
When a popular trend starts to sacrifice creativity & merit for potential profit, often involving hybridization with other unrelated but popular trends, frequent use of deceptive tactics, & inclusion of sometimes vulgar content to lure in mature audiences.
This will often occur when the original creators & propagators of a trend stop producing content related to it, and imitators start adding new aspects to increase popularity, outpacing creators actually devoted to quality product in terms of sheer quantity.
