Unpopular opinion, but the real question is why do you need or think you are owed a response. If you send a thank you.. that is the end of the message. If they give you the job or don’t give you the job is the next step. Unless you are specifically asking a question.. there is no need for a response. If you do something like give a thank you, it should not come with an obligation for the other person to respond. This is similar if a guy buys you a drink is he now your boyfriend out of politeness? Basically if you do it.. do it because you wanted to do it because you genuinely want to say thank you.
Good point! I guess I try to always respond somehow to every email if it is sent to me directly (usually don’t respond when I’m CCed).
That's a really good question! It seems like just ignoring people has somehow become normalized. It used to be standard business etiquette to respond to people, and it would have been very strange to interview someone and just ignore them. But now people will do and say things which they would have been embarrassed to do just a decade ago.
I’ve noticed that too, and it's always been so weird to me. I think it often comes down to how busy recruiters and hiring managers are. They might appreciate the thank you but just don’t have the time to respond to every email, especially if the process is moving quickly. Still worth sending though IMHO.
The volume of emails received from both inside and outside the company can be overwhelming.
I like that Outlook has the feature to react to an email with a smile, celebration, etc and will use that instead of a formal reply.
I hate to say it, but when you already have a couple of hundred emails coming in a day, the responses to thank you emails falls down to the bottom of the list.

For me, I am a department of one. I handle all recruiting, employee relations, admin, etc. I have placed a job on Indeed for remote position at end of shift. I come in the next morning to find 300 candidates. I review each and every resume. I allow Indeed to send rejection notice. If I interview and not interested, I send a card to let them know if we are not moving forward. Some days are more tedious than others. To be expected to respond to everyone's email is crazy. I understand common courtesy. If you an individual has the time to answer every email that comes across their desk, more power to you. Like I said above, if you send a thank you card to an individual that provided you a gift, are you expecting them to send you a card back? The same would be true for the thank you email.
If a candidate takes the time to send me a thank you email, I respond back. It is common courtesy.
I respond to all candidates who apply for positions that I have ownership of. I never leave candidates in the dark, If I don't have further details, I will be transparent and let candidates know up front. I hate to waste peoples time, as I would hate for it to be done to me.

Why are you wanting acknowledgement?

SR Manager, Hris 1 - I never said I didn't respond to the thank you notes, but I was curious as to why expect an email response to the thank you.
If you had sent a thank you card for a gift, would you expect the gift giver to send back a card saying you're welcome?
No need for name calling or insults!
I think one reply, though poorly worded and accusatory, was the right response.
There really is no implied response to a Thank You. A thank you is usually the end of the discussion. I've sent a lot of thank you emails (for interviewing) and never really expected a response. I did get one response, once, and that was nice...so I understand the feeling you get from a response...but generally speaking I don't expect responses.
Nor do I send responses to Thank You notes. I do make mental notes if someone sent me a Thank You letter...but I don't feel a response is warranted to someone thanking me for an interview. And historically...that is the point of the Thank You note...for the Applicant to keep their name fresh in the mind of the hiring manager (and remind them why they are the best fit for the job...out of everyone the interviewed).
So I wouldn't take it personal at all...nor would I stop the practice of sending them. Keep it up.
