   Oh no. The dev of a new YT player for #Gnome chooses to illustrate it by showing the channel of a nazi and a fraud.

   I can't know if the developer knows, of course. But we know that this kind of uncertainty is weaponized by the "alt right" all the time. So, how does one deal with it?

   Also, the dev probably won't influence what content the users of the app actually sees, so how much does it really matter if the app is good? I feel these are difficult questions.
