Are they, though? Twitter is going a really odd way around making money if that's their goal. To me, I see it as a mix of a few things: the post 2016/cambridge analytica wave of moderation and institutionalization of safety & responsibility, stagnation, meta's withdrawal from Facebook as a platform altogether, higher interest rates, and a rising wave of political reaction. Obviously Reddit doesn't necessarily hit on all of those, but it's not unaffected, either.
