Board Game Arena

Their webpage explicitly says that they have no plans to do any kind of online game client tied to your collection. That feels like a massive miss in an otherwise very interesting idea.

I echo this sentiment.

I wonder how this game relates to https://www.lightseekers.cards/. It too had the concept of selling physical cards, but you were also able to own a digital copy of it. You can still play Lightseekers online, even on mobile. But AFAIK this game is pretty much dead, which is unfortunate, since it had a really nice idea about some new mechanics.
Does anyone know more about what the status of Lightseekers is, and why the game died?
