Is this a current web design trend in ditching sidebar navigation?

Because its easier to create a website thats fluid to work both on mobile and desktop. Instead of setting min-width and dropping the sidebar.

Sidebars are great on web.
Sidebars on mobile are choppy if not done correctly. I dont have a high end smartphone i have 1gb ram and most of the time sisebars fail on me and my clicks always go somewhere else.

Sidebars were a meme, sort of. Tons of sites didn't need them, but included them anyways because they looked "cool" and felt like the right thing to do.

There's no point in spreading your content out super thin in order to populate a bunch of nearly empty subpages. If you have a complex website, that's fine, but a lot of websites don't need to be huge and are better served by having everything on a single page. No shame in making things concise and tidy.
