I’m really not sure why Reddit is on that list. They were already censoring everything anyway all for their IPO.

To prevent future radicalization and violence, the CEOs of Discord, Steam, Twitch, and Reddit must appear before the Oversight Committee and explain what actions they will take to ensure their platforms are not exploited for nefarious purposes
In other words, explain what you’ll be doing to add censorship to your platforms.
They really could not have picked a worse demographic to try that on. Not only do online gamers despise censorship and policing, their vocal minority is known for being extremely toxic and unrelenting. The icing on the cake is that a good number of them are right-wing, too.
Have fun dealing with the shitstorm you’re about to create!

The only one of those I really expect to show censorship resistance is Steam. And of that, I’m very curious if they’re going to see repercussions from it.

We’re about to see even more groypers assassinating political figures if they manage to put their greasy censorious thumbs on it.
