I am a Reddit newbie but how could it be a subReddit if it’s on a different site?

/r/wallstreetbets or wallstreetbets both refer to the same subreddit at https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/

Topstonks (linked above) seems to be a news aggregator and also scrapes comments from some subreddits (They have a "see original") links near each scraped comment.

I also was confused at first.

Reddit is a composite of many subreddits.

Each subreddit is oriented around specific or a broad topic, a theme.

There is a subreddit for anything you can think of, some very niche subreddits are excellent sources of information.

I understand all of that. My question was about something different: how subreddits could be different websites. It was answered by the sibling commenters.
