This article lists the fifty most-subscribed channels on the video platform YouTube.[3] The ability to "subscribe" to a user's channel was added to YouTube by late October 2005,[4] and the "most subscribed" list on YouTube began as a chart by May 2006, at which time Smosh was number one with fewer than three thousand subscribers.[5] Since December 22, 2013, the most subscribed user has been PewDiePie, whose channel has over 58 million subscribers as of December 2017.

In late 2006, when Peter Oakley, also known as Geriatric1927, became most subscribed, a number of TV channels wanted to interview him on his rise to fame.[citation needed] The Daily Mail and TechBlog published an article about him and his success. In 2009, the FRED channel was the first to have over one million subscribers.[citation needed]
Following the third time that Smosh became most subscribed, Ray William Johnson collaborated with the duo.[144] A flurry of top YouTubers including Ryan Higa, Shane Dawson, Felix Kjellberg, Michael Buckley, Kassem Gharaibeh, The Fine Brothers, and Johnson himself, congratulated the duo shortly after they surpassed Johnson as the most subscribed channel.[145]
