Russia has a comparable population to Japan. And there are lots of YouTubers with literally millions of subscribers, and I don’t hear about most of them even in Russian media.
- ripply 6y agoIt really is a lot for Japan, if you ever visit ニコニコ動画 (https://nicovideo.jp https://nicovideo.jp) and look at the top videos, views pale in comparison to anything on Youtube. Nico video is #28 on Alexa in Japan (Youtube is #2) and is very very popular, it is a Japanese only Youtube site. It is so popular the Nintendo switch app to view the site came out a year before a Youtube app did (7/2017 vs 7/2018).
- LudwigNagasena 6y agoHa, that's weird. So turns out Russia is probably an outlier in its obsession with YouTube.
- kansface 6y agoThere are many Russian speakers even if Russia doesn't have a huge population - 258 vs 145 million.
