Probably. Their aim has always been to colonize the entire web.

For a long time. Essentially all social media will heavily downrank any post that includes a link. They don't want you leaving.

Fun historical note: one of the first applications of the internet was the "world wide web" (WWW). The idea was people that people would host HTML files on the internet that would be connect to each other using "links" to form a web of "sites" (called, of course, "websites"). You can still find these websites on the internet if you leave the walled gardens and paywalls, but it takes some effort.
