Adderall caused weight gain for me, and anecdotally also for a close friend of mine. Wellbutrin works, though, at least for me personally.
Lots of drugs have effects that vary wildly between different individuals (and they may even sometimes cause paradoxical effects), so I’m not sure that variance in response to amphetamines is necessarily that much of a hint about what is causing the obesity epidemic. If semaglutide works universally, or nearly so—and early studies are very promising—then that might be a strong hint as to what is causing the obesity epidemic.

Relatedly, this seems to be the distribution of weight changes on 15 mg of tirzepatide + lifestyle interventions, compared to lifestyle interventions alone (over 72 weeks, I think):
