How to use this report
Start with a topic, compare recent measurements and inspect the original public profile before deciding where to advertise. A large membership count alone is not evidence of active or authentic readers.
This is the crawler's observed coverage, not a representative sample of Telegram, a market-size estimate or a list of unique people. Language describes content, not audience location. Summed channel memberships overlap.
