TheBlackTube Is Growing — And We Need Your Support to Keep Building
As we step into 2026, we’re excited to share a major milestone with our community:
TheBlackTube has grown so much that we had to upgrade our servers to keep up with demand.
More creators.
More viewers.
More content uploaded every day.
More voices being heard.
And that growth is because of YOU — our citizens who believe in a platform built for creators, freedom of expression, and ownership of content.
Why This Upgrade Matters
Over the past year, TheBlackTube has experienced:
• Increased daily traffic
• Higher video uploads
• More creators monetizing their work
• Greater global reach
• More donations than ever before from our supporters
To continue delivering a fast, reliable experience, we made the decision to invest in new infrastructure going into our 6th year. This ensures:
Faster load times Better streaming performance More storage for creators Improved platform stability Room to grow in 2026 and beyond
This upgrade was necessary — but it also came with significant costs.
Preserving Black Stories & Culture for a Lifetime
TheBlackTube exists for a purpose bigger than entertainment.
It represents a space where Black stories, voices, creativity, and culture are preserved for generations to come — without fear of deletion, censorship, or being erased by changing algorithms.
This platform is:
• A digital archive of Black excellence
• A home for authentic storytelling
• A place where future generations can see their history reflected
• A community where culture is honored, protected, and shared
By supporting TheBlackTube, you are helping ensure that our stories live on for a lifetime.

A Platform Built by the People, for the People
For six years, TheBlackTube has stood as a home for creators who want:
• Creative freedom
• Fair monetization
• Protection from sudden deletion
• A community that values their voice
We’ve come this far together, and now we’re inviting our community to help fuel the next phase of growth.

As we migrate to our new servers over the next week, users may experience slower load speeds or brief interruptions. We are working carefully to ensure all content transfers safely and the platform becomes faster and more reliable than ever.
We truly appreciate your patience and understanding during this important upgrade.
