I believe the frontend is what people are most familiar with when it comes to development. When most people think of Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc you typically think of the front facing user interface. Very few people ever have to think about how their data is handled in the backend at scale or how low level systems process that information. Therefore, web dev concepts are easier to grasp because of established familiarity as in the goal is clearer. That was my experience anyways. I was able to see the application (no pun intended) of what I was building.
Yep, social media is everywhere and is mostly web dev. Also if a business wants to sell online, well web dev again. And so on... you don't really "see" other stuff, besides a OS but people say "my laptop" or "my cellphone", like if it was one thing, they not usually separate the OS from the hardware in their minds.
