While Twitter isn\u2019t the biggest social platform \u2014 it has more than 217 million daily users, compared with billions for Facebook and Instagram \u2014 it consistently shapes narratives around the world. But it\u2019s also a breeding ground for extreme harassment, hate and the spreading of misinformation.
