"Since 2013, millions of people have turned to Vine to laugh at loops and see creativity unfold. Today, we are sharing the news that in the coming months we'll be discontinuing the mobile app." - Team Vine and Twitter
Almost four years to the day of Twitter's $30-million acquisition of the popular video sharing app that the Los Angeles Times once called, "…one of best social media apps in the market," Vine is officially dead.
The Vine and Twitter team announced on Oct. 27 that the app would be "discontinued," but the website and six-second videos would remain accessible, for now.
While the announcement made big waves, it came as no surprise to many considering that Twitter has been struggling immensely for some time now, as well as the fact that the video platform received little to no marketing support. |
