Stats updated Aug 10, 2026 · Channel data from YouTube
Overview
Where Hard Fork ranks in News & Politics
Hard Fork sits at #382 of 441 News & Politics channels tracked in the FindYourKOL directory, ranked by subscriber count alongside other creators covering breaking news coverage, policy analysis and political commentary. That position is not editorial: it comes straight from the same subscriber count shown at the top of this page, recalculated every time the directory rebuilds. It has been active on YouTube since 2023, building its audience one upload at a time. Every stat on this page pulls from YouTube's public data and refreshes on a recurring schedule, so the ranking above reflects where Hard Fork stood in News & Politics as of the last update. FindYourKOL classifies public YouTube channels into 20 content niches based on their published videos, so this ranking reflects News & Politics specifically rather than a broader catch-all category, and it moves as subscriber counts change.
