I see a lot of comments about it being a trend and/or the cameras being pretty good.
But most people browse photos on their phones, which are usually smaller than traditional 4x6 prints. Also, a loss of fidelity has been a fun tool to aid in the interpretive aspect of photography.
I went to college for fine art photography (don’t be like me) and I had a lot of fun with 110 film cameras. Later, in the late 2000s I worked in a prestigious camera shop in Southern California, and they had a huge selection of toy cameras that made photography fun for me. One exposed 360° of an image across 5 or 6 frames of 35mm. I took that on a sailing trip and got some pretty epic photos out of it.
