If you follow the links, the "64%" statistic is from data that is at least 5 years old. Are there more recent #s? A lot has changed in the last 5 years.
I'd also argue that "Facebook: We told them to join these groups" is a misleading take, since it's not a quote from Facebook and it's twisting their words. I guess "64% of Facebook users joined groups via recommendations" isn't sexy enough of a headline.
It's interesting that no one mentions the percentage for non-extremist groups. Assuming the omission is intentional, I wouldn't be surprised if the rate for rate for extremist groups is actually lower than for nonextremist groups
