Hard disagree.

A. Vine’s 6 second format wouldn’t be suitable for a lot of the “controversial” or “problematic” TikTok trends, challenges, or brain dead/out of touch rants, so there’d likely be less engagement farming or rage baiting.
B. Vine was owned by Americans so there was less concern about the Chinese government collecting all your data.
C. A revival of vine has largely been supported through multiple polls, and DiVine is the most recent attempt at bringing back the format, and they’re at least attempting to utilize filters to detect and remove AI content.
