Most of the indie games I see are steam games? I am just confused if web games are actually considered as Indie games?

I have been working in the web games industry for more than half a decade. I am planning to my own web games to publish on some web game portals. Also share some insights and development updates on some social media. But all the time on X or reddit I only see steam games are promoted as an indie games. But not any web games.

As a web game developer just Want to hear from all of you about this.

Thanks
