>Neumorphism never quite made it mainstream because it comes with its own set of problems. The low contrast does not offer sufficient visual weight, making the experience not accessible. Additionally, it is difficult to determine clickability, as neumorphism is often used inconsistently on nonclickable and clickable elements.
Don't get me wrong, I still like the design and I think it's cool, but I understand the reasons why it never got popular.
