Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter, is backing a new app called diVine, designed to revive the nostalgia of Vine’s six-second looping videos. This innovative platform will allow users to access over 100,000 archived Vine videos, restored from an older backup. diVine won’t just be a nostalgic dive; it empowers users to create profiles and upload new content while actively flagging and preventing generative AI content. Funded by Dorsey’s nonprofit “and Other Stuff,” diVine aims to transform social media dynamics, prioritizing real human interactions. Early Twitter employee Evan Henshaw-Plath led efforts to reconstruct archived content, ensuring that creators retain ownership of their copyrights. Users can verify and restore their accounts to share new or recover lost videos. Built on the decentralized Nostr protocol, diVine encourages creativity without traditional corporate restraints. Available on iOS and Android, diVine caters to those yearning for authentic, non-AI-driven social experiences, bridging the past with the present.
