Divine, an open-source Vine reboot backed by Jack Dorsey's "and Other Stuff" nonprofit, launched publicly with access to ~500,000 restored Vine videos recovered from community archives. Built by early Twitter employee Evan Henshaw-Plath, the app reconstructed large binary backups to restore the original six-second looping video format and user engagement metrics. The project represents Dorsey's effort to reverse his earlier decision to shut Vine down at Twitter.
