PewDiePie video views 2016-2023

Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg - operating on YouTube as PewDiePie - is one of the most successful content creators on the platform. As of January 2023, the popular YouTuber had accumulated approximately 28.82 billion views on his channel. Despite his success, PewDiePie 's YouTube channel has experienced stagnant growth in 2022, maintaining its audience at 111 million subscribers since December 2021.

Most popular channels

While PewDiePie’s accumulated more than 28 billion views is impressive, it is dwarfed by the most watched channels on YouTube. Indian music channel T-Series is the most watched YouTube channel on a monthly basis, with viewers watching their videos an incredible 3.52 billion times every month. Although India’s large population is an obvious advantage in terms of video views, the country saw only approximately 37 YouTube reach as of the beginning of 2022.

Fast fame on YouTube

Now a decade old, YouTube’s ability to connect content creators with massive audiences has led to the emergence of channels that rival mainstream media outlets in terms of audience size. In some cases, videos can reach 100 million views in just a matter of days. Unlikely stars such as Ryan Toysreview have also attracted roughly 49 billion views, generating significant revenue in the process.
