Yes, dumb terminals in the spirit, since they are used by most as mere bootloader for a WebVM who is just a way to render a remote application... While incredibly complicated (more than complex) is just the mainframe+dumb terminals model.
My point here is why the hell tie our external masculine genitals to someone else computer and layer crap o crap investing gazillion of resources to make the monster work well enough to be used instead of rediscovering the classic networked desktops model like the one Xerox propose many decades ago?
Oh, sure surveillance capitalism... But are we really so dumb in mean to keep this crap stand?
How simple is just offer a webdav/sshfs (with isolated and scponly accounts) on a homeserver that have an ipv6 global with a proper dns nice domain and those who want just mount the share and read it with their own preferred software like the old classic Plan 9 model?
