This is an important point. Just because a platform is profitable, doesn't mean it hasn't been enshitified. It's far more likely to have been enshitified to drive profits, imo.
And the underlying problem is capitalism itself. There's nothing wrong with making money.

Capitalism is a plague on society—a malignant cancer on humanity.
