The folks at @globalwitness have done some amazing (and shocking!) analysis of content moderation on large platforms:

All those they looked at "except and , lack human content moderators in some of the EU languages."

And "neither nor have a single content moderator who can speak Estonian, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Lithuanian, Maltese, Slovak, Slovenian", and X also has "no moderators for Czech, Danish, Finnish, Romanian, or Swedish." 💥
