SharePoint Online - Site design removed from "Create site" menu?
Hey JoostvdLinden
As you say, this appears related to the switch they are making from Site Designs to Site Templates in terminology and also updating the UI to apply templates. I would raise a ticket but I suspect they are aware of this and have temporarily removed the integration at creation until they figure out a way to add it back in.

- David is correct,
The Site Designs have been moved to the Apply site templates features we have for a given siteThis means that the end user should now wait for site provisioning and perform another few steps before the site template is applied? I find no advantage there.
Do you happen to know if I can replace the existing (default) "Team Site" template with our custom template? As mentioned here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/declarative-customization/customize-default-site-design
Hey JoostvdLinden
Totally get the frustration, it's an odd choice and like I said, I suspect this is not intended to remain this way long term. Personally, I would suggest waiting a bit and working around the couple extra steps before you commit to updating the default site templates, but that's just what I would do, so take it with a grain of salt.
