You don't understand how the 1st amendment works do you? The first amendment gives corporations/companies rights as well, including speech and association rights. Meaning if they don't like your speech/values, they have the right to limit it or remove you, much the same way you would someone on your property.If those web companies are based in the US then they are subject to US laws, including the 1st amendment.
Only the government and public institutions have limits on the speech they can stop, unless they violate some other rights, statutes, or local ordinances, like Title IX for example.
If f95 or X wanted to, they could ban everyone who doesn't type in italics, and they would be within their first amendment rights. Patreon has the right to change the sort of speech/content they allow on their platform, which they have, multiple times. Besides, companies and corporations have to adhere to different laws/regulation depending on where their servers/offices/operations reside.
Please do a proper study of the first amendment, I honestly get tired of these discussions....
