JACK DORSEY-BACKED VINE REBOOT DIVINE GOES PUBLIC

Divine revives the short-form video format that made Vine popular before its shutdown in 2017. The platform maintains the core mechanic of looping six-second clips while introducing modern features. A key distinction: Divine explicitly bans AI-generated content from its platform, positioning itself against the wave of algorithmic slop filling other social networks. This approach appeals to creators seeking spaces for authentic human-made content. Dorsey, the co-founder of Twitter and Block, has backed the project through his nonprofit organization. Divine's launch represents another attempt in the crowded short-form video space dominated by TikTok and Instagram Reels. The platform is now available to the general public, inviting creators and viewers to revisit the six-second video format alongside contemporary design and moderation standards.
