Wendover ProductionsUpdated 5 October 2026. Channels that mostly post Shorts or live streams lately aren’t listed. A reach over 100% means a channel’s views come from well beyond its subscribers. Videos from before 24 August 2026 were counted under YouTube’s older, stricter rule.
How we work out the number
Three steps, shown with Fede Vigevani’s real numbers.
Take their last 10 regular videos
Each one at least a week old (so the views have settled) and no more than 4 months.
✕ No Shorts✕ No live streams
Find the typical one
Line them up from fewest views to most and take the middle, halfway between the 5th and 6th. That’s the typical views.
One viral hit can’t skew it, and neither can one flop.
Divide by subscribers
Typical views ÷ subscribers × 100 = views per 100 subscribers. We can’t tell which views were subscribers, so it’s a ceiling: at most that many in 100 saw it.
23.5Mtypical views
79.3MsubscribersIn plain words
Fede Vigevani’s typical new video gets 30 views per 100 subscribers. Even if every one of those views came from a subscriber, at most 30 in 100 saw it.
So at least 70 of every 100 subscribers didn’t watch it. The true number is higher, since some views come from non-subscribers.
Why “at most”?
We count views, and a view isn’t a subscriber. Views also come from search, recommendations and shares, so the real share of subscribers who watched is lower still, and a few channels even score over 100.
Since 24 August 2026, YouTube counts a view the moment a video starts playing, even if someone leaves after a second. A view isn’t the same as someone watching.
Why it’s so low
YouTube decides who gets notified. New subscribers are set to “Personalized”, where YouTube picks which uploads they hear about.
Since 2025, even fans who chose “All” stop getting alerts if they haven’t watched in about a month.
Numbers: subscriber counts and video views from YouTube’s official API. Public data only.
