Telegram channels of Crimea

Камни, бляди, бескозырки leads the field with a score of 78, which is 45 points above the median. The largest channel by audience is ЧП / Крым, with 480 251 subscribers, yet its score of 32 sits just below the median, a reminder that a big following doesn't automatically translate into a high score.

Subscriber counts across these channels vary widely, but the median sits at 15 236, which gives a clearer picture of a typical channel's reach than the outlier at the top. Most channels cluster well below the scale of ЧП / Крым, so a following in the low five figures is the ordinary case rather than the exception.

The categories where these channels most often sit are Local news, Travel, War & conflicts, Incidents, and Other news. That spread points to a mix of day-to-day regional coverage alongside channels tracking the conflict directly, with travel content and general incident reporting filling out the rest.
