He's so desperate to be relevant. This will flop so hard.

However, unlike on traditional social media, where AI content is often haphazardly labeled, diVine will flag suspected generative AI content and prevent it from being posted.
Although I really enjoyed and kinda miss Vine, I think it's important to realize Vine was also a product of its time.
The internet culture changed a lot since Vine shutdown. Bringing Vine back won't bring that old culture back, and the 6-second limit is more likely to alienate new users used to the modern short-video platforms than anything.
I will give them props for trying to fight the seemingly unstoppable slop-ification of the internet, but ultimately it believe it would be best to leave Vine and the great memories we had with it on the past.

You're saying you hate piefed for actually using encryption for users to log into specific accounts before posting instead of just being anon posts like 4chan?
And you hate 4chan for using https instead of being like old BBS forums?
Or is it just nostr using decentralized logins that takes the cryptography too far for you?
Colloquially crypto means crypto currencies or NFTs like bitcoin, not normal encryption.
Right, and the point is that nostr isn't "crypto-powered" by that colloquial definition. It is "crypto-powered" in that it uses encryption though.
Yeah, it is just going to be filled with shortened down tiktok slop rather than anything it would have been in the past.

But why? 6 second video slop is already everywhere.
I hope he won't fight the removal of the 6-second limit after beta testing is over. That should just be a way to save storage space and bandwidth during the beta test. Nostr is decentralized, so there should be nothing stopping someone from mirroring the app with no 6-second limit in their version, if it actually gets developed into a stable service. Or this jack-backed version could just remove the 6-second limit
Looks like the 6 second limit is already removed but I can't really tell because the launch version of this app is so broken it could just be a glitch. Hope it keeps improving
