No it isn't. Other sites doing the same doesn't automatically mean it is better. It can also mean that everyone is just doing the wrong thing.

For example, the university I attend did a conversion from a desktop-centric to a mobile-centric website and now it takes me so much longer to find what I am looking for. Yes, it is more aesthetically pleasing on mobile and great for casual browsing. However, there is a lot of wasted space on desktop and, honestly, I don't know many people who spend their free time browsing through random forms. When I to the site, I know what form I want; I don't need to go searching through a maze of menus leading to vaguely worded pages just to finally find a link to what I want.
