i saw this view a lot on pcmr when i was using reddit. but it doesn’t make sense,there is no evidence thin clients are the future. internet speeds aren’t even good enough for most people worldwide for that to be the future.
I would say cost because of capitalism. It’s very cheap to run, subscription based, low cost entry, push ads, data gathering, and just about any device can run it regardless of OS or performance.
It doesn’t need to reach everyone, just the ones willing to pay for it.
I’m not in favor of it but I do see why it would make sense for some people
