It is 100% malicious botting. The same thing happens to vtubers pretty often from what I can gather. The /r/speedrun defence force is running damage control. Too many ads on twitch so everyone moved even though twitch viewership didn't change, da algo picked it up, the games being shown resonate better with the youtube audience (????) etc.I have to assume this is malicious botting right? Just to make fun of the fact that GDQ is constantly coping and dilating and pretending to definitely not be mad about the verifiable fact that less and less people give one iota of a fuck about their charade with every passing 6 months? Twitch apparently rolled out a bunch of safeguards against bots or made that change so that only "real" or "verified" viewers count as active watchers, so maybe that's why the botting is happening on YouTube because those numbers are just easier to fudge because there are less checks?
It can't be viral or organic viewership, otherwise there'd be a correlating uptick in social media buzz like with some influencer(s) and their entire audiences somehow only just now discovering GDQ and thus sending an increasing spike of traffic their way, a spike that even ignores the expected downturn of viewership in the late PM / early AM hours.
