I have a hard time believing that 2 of the largest companies in the world with some of the largest data resources on the planet would implement this if they weren’t achieving anything.
There’s clearly something to this that critics are missing.
Any sort of objective dialogue on what this could accomplish when Twitter implemented it was drowned out by Reddit’s vocal hate for Elon.

Exactly. Facebook and Twitter understand their businesses better than any average Joe on Reddit.
I don’t understand this decision myself but I’m sure they have their reasons. People commenting things like “bad move, Facebook” just sound dumb.
