Twitter counts Vine’s days left, Vine is shutting down

27 October 2016
Vine was the perfect platform to compliment Twitter. Users could film micro clips within 6 seconds that would loop over and over. And the resulting content is nothing short of Amazing. Many “internet personalities” gained popularity on the platform, and the six-second limit resulted in some really creative videos.

        AnonD-507785, 28 Oct 2016I'm fine with that. And will be if the Instagram, Snapchat,... moreFacebook is one of the world's largest corporations, and it will not die anytime soon. Facebook is the biggest social network, and with live videos and search, it's getting bigger than ever. Same with Instagram. It is killing Snapchat, so it's more likely that Snapchat will die soon, or will be acquired, and then closed, just like Twitter and Vine. But Facebook? Don't expect that to happen.

Anyway maybe Sony will send an update on the that will remove Vine from your phone, or Twitter will update the Twitter app so that it removes the Vine app on any phone.

            Vine is one of my Sony Xperia Z3 default apps. After shutting down will it disappear from my phone?

              There are many
              Actually, there are studies proving social media is making us more isolated.
              If I want to socialize, I simply go out, meet my friends, not being attention wannabe on Internet.
              Not to mention the privacy violation here, which is another issue.

                Jeez, so many people against social media here, I'm surprised.

                          I'm fine with that. And will be if the Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, Facebook...and so on will go away. Can't wait to get out of fb soon. It became way too much, that it should have been.

                                Vine was about creativity, and it squeezed as much as it could from viners, and now they just make stupid, boring videos, no wonder it is shutting down.
