Divine, a Vine‑style short‑form video app, has just landed on the iOS App Store and Google Play. The service stitches together hundreds of thousands of legacy Vine clips with fresh uploads, letting creators share six‑second loops again. Backed by a nonprofit linked to Jack Dorsey, the launch follows a year‑long beta and supports Android 13.

Original Vine debuted in 2012, quickly amassing over 200 million active users before Twitter shuttered it in 2017 and erased its catalog two years later. Divine’s team reconstructed the archive from massive backup files, restoring view counts and likes to preserve the platform’s historic engagement, preserving creator royalties and community memory. The effort satisfies longtime fans who argued the format deserved more than pure nostalgia.

Divine runs on Nostr, an open‑source social protocol championed by Dorsey, and the developers are testing integration with the AT Protocol that powers Bluesky as well as ActivityPub, the backbone of Mastodon and Threads. By re‑hosting Vine’s library on interoperable standards, the app aims to sidestep algorithmic feeds and give creators a clean, loop‑centric canvas for indie videographers worldwide.
