I guess this is applicable to any social media platform or other similar systems. Is it because there are always bugs to address, so it’s never really running smoothly, or other reasons?

In theory, if the code was perfect, it could run on autopilot (outside of content moderation). Perfect code is a goal, but not a likely occurrence. Sometimes the silliest things break your code, and even though it only happens in this somewhat unlikely situation, you still need to fix it.
Even with perfect code, vulnerabilities are being discovered and patched (regarding the underlying language or libraries used from outside sources). Sometimes you discover vulnerabilities within your own code that need to be fixed. Any time you update something, you potentially break it. It’s not the same as updating your phone, although in a perfect world it probably would be.
