It would be possible to load programs from the web on the TRS-80 line too, except for the need for a special cable. There’s also some special apps for doing similar things on the ZX Spectrum.

I find it really interesting trying to bootstrap computers from bare metal and format a blank floppy and make it bootable. I keep thinking I should do a challenge to see if people can document a procedure for doing it on other platforms.
