    Yeah good point, it was more than just twitter.

    YouTube definitely know they have an issue and don’t care, or they would do something about it. Radicalising people with extreme content increases engagement which makes them money, the only thing that will make them change it is regulation (with teeth).

      That is fair that a person becoming radicalized does engage more, but it also turns a lot of people away from the platform and the loss of advertisers and users on Twitter is proof of that.
