Vitalik on Community Notes
Post-Elon takeover the amount of bot spam I encounter has definitely decreased. I'm not sure the claim of Twitter moderation is accurate, since before the takeover the problem was still present.
The problem got so bad in YouTube Comments that eventually third-party tools [0] were developed to help purge spam.
I agree that if you had a team monitoring spam they could write rules to drastically reduce spam. It's always going to be a cat and mouse game, but if the cat side was more proactive it would definitely lead to a better experience.

CGP Grey Shouldn't Reserve The Ability To Comment To His Patreon Subscribers. Here's Why
However, CGP Grey hasn't mentioned attempting to use ThioJoe's tool to get rid of these scam comments. According to Linus Tech Tips, a channel with over 15 million subscribers, this tool "is so dead simple that it's shocking" and its false positive rate is "roughly zero".

The spam on Twitter is appalling
I just got my channel added to an 'alpha' of their new spam prevention algorithm... and it seems to be working so far (fingers crossed).
I was getting around 300 spam replies to comments on my videos per week up until the alpha started—now I'm getting 0. So maybe they finally cracked that nut, but I won't count my chickens before they're hatched.
I still run YT-Spammer-Purge[1] daily, but it's come up dry for the past week now.

- I received this reply to a comment on David's YouTube channel. Either David has a second channel he uses to get people to randomly call or a scammer is pretending to be him.

YouTube to start blocking third-party apps that don't show ads
Can't recommend SmartTube enough: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube
Includes crowdsourced sponsor block as well. The day YouTube goes the Twitch route and starts embedding ads is the day I stop using it. Literally unwatchable at this point without adblocking.
