First MAX channels

Those whose first post came out before September 1, 2025. There are 454 channels like this now, with 30.9 M subscribers in total, 7.8 % of all MAX subscriptions. The largest come first in the list; the tabs above it change the order.

datool.ru data collection downloads a channel's whole history, back to the very first post. MAX does not give out a channel's creation date, so we go by the first post. A channel joins the collection once its whole history is collected, so the collection is still filling in.

Most likely its history has not been collected back to the start yet, the channel is private, or its first post came out after September 1, 2025. Private channels do not get into collections; an open channel can be added by link.

Above the list are the “Subscribers”, “Activity”, “Quality index”, “Marks” and “Region” filters and the “Find a channel” field: search and filters work only inside the collection. The tabs change the order: by subscribers, quality index, citations, fresh posts and newest; the “Table” view is handy for comparing. 211 channels in the collection have a quality index of 70 or more.

The collection and its filter counts are recalculated every hour. datool.ru data collection updates subscribers and posts: large channels every few minutes, small ones once a day.
