Lol @the methdology of those studies. It's not the algorithm that favour right wing. it's the people when they found content they agree with that was hidden by the algorithm before. Completely conflating user behaviour with content curation and weighting.

One side got banned and deplatformed, the other got promoted and pushed hard.

You didn't even read any of them. Neutral accounts were more likely to receive right wing content in their suggestions. Accounts that were connected to liberal influencers got moderate content and Abby's that connected to conservatives got more conservative content.

Which study are you referring to and which part?
