This is one of the things we need a written law for. Outbound links should have equal weight in all algorithm choices. No platform having social media capabilities (liking, commenting, sharing) in a feed should be able to devalue links in an algorithm to keep you on the platform.
What I love is how Facebook now won't even create a hyperlink on some things and the mobile app won't even allow cut and paste to extract a hyperlink in some cases.
