The return of Vine is official after Jack Dorsey funded a new app called diVine. It's a reboot of the popular six-second video platform that many creators loved.
This is one of the biggest news stories in digital culture as diVine has acquired the entire Vine video archive, containing billions of iconic and popular clips that have become part of internet history. Many thought these videos were lost, but now they are coming back to life on a new platform.
Dorsey's investment also shows that he believes in the value of short videos. diVine will enter as a competitor to today's short-video apps like TikTok, but with the nostalgia and classic looping style of the original Vine. It will also add more modern tools for creators. According to the team, original creators still own their copyrights and can request removal of their videos if they wish.
For fans, it's a great thing to be able to rewatch over 100,000 archived Vine videos along with new content from modern creators. diVine is now available to download and try out.
