But conventionally the word "distributed” is for apps running on multiple servers. Your definition makes every web app "distributed". And I feel like most of HN would disagree with calling Spotify Web a "distributed app"

It's not "my" definition, it used to be a very common definition.

e.g., quassel, an irc bouncer + client, used the same term since 2007.
