Is onward flight required when entering Thailand on a DTV visa? or when checking in to the flight?

I booked a one way because I’m not sure how long I’ll stay.
Answer summary
When entering Thailand on a DTV visa, an onward flight is not required. Multiple community members confirmed that they have entered Thailand without having a booked onward flight, emphasizing that it is generally not a prerequisite.

Been in and out multiple times. Only one time, when I knew I was going to the Philippines a week after I arrived, did I have what would be considered an onward flight
