And despite that I can’t believe some people are still not highly skeptical of federating with meta as though there isn’t over a decade of privacy infringing business practices. Instead wanting to hear them out after they just went through deleting content from reddit because they didn’t want to provide value to Spez, but they are fine with providing content for meta users to interact with for Zuckerberg?

Twitter had the most data harvesting with news sites embedding tweets. Can’t do that with an app and no web.

That is likely a benefit but let’s be honest the real reason is that a web version would require a lot of additional overhead especially to staff enough engineers.
