**How is this ranking calculated?**

Each channel's latest observed public subscriber count minus the subscriber count vidIQ recorded on January 1, 2026, falling back to December 31 or January 2, highest first. A channel created during the period can count from an inferred zero. The list covers channels whose country on YouTube is Rwanda. YouTube rounds public subscriber counts, so gains are measured between rounded numbers.

**How often is this list updated?**

Once a day. vidIQ last updated the figures on this page on November 10, 2026.

**Why is a channel missing from this list?**

A channel is left out when vidIQ has no subscriber count for it from the start of the period, when its public subscriber count is unavailable, or when vidIQ does not track it yet. So is a channel whose country on YouTube is not Rwanda.
