I'm not convinced that's the case. I think it's more an issue of resource investment. Firms are capable of funding things. Twitter at a low level barely has more "features" than email if you stop and list off what you actually need in order to do what it does. But it has reams of UX stuff built on top of the base functionality, recommendation algorithms, moderation tools, lots of servers, technicians to maintain those servers, etc, etc.
FOSS stuff is continually at a resource disadvantage in most domains.
