I was there on the first wave of the cloud boom (2012-ish), it’s biggest pushers got really angry that we weren’t up to give up our computers for “sleek, slim, and elegant” devices that would make wires “obsolete” at least in the home, so we can finally live in a sci-fi movie. They literally wanted us to use “browser app” DAWs that would do it’s computing on the cloud, then they realized many of us would like to record music, run live effects, etc.
