Well the parent got it right in that r/wsb and r/wallstreetbets are literally two different subreddits. The former has a lot less volume but it nonetheless exists.

Any string of "r/<20 or fewer characters>" is a link to a subreddit, which in this case, the mods of the original have happened to create so that no one else squats on it. As used in reddit comments and this article, they are not referring to the actual "r/wsb" subreddit when they type those characters, though; it's just an abbreviation.
