I can only remember how popular Vine was at its height when I was in high school; there are so many jokes I have with friends that can only be described by a now long lost Vine. I wonder how different the platform would be now had it lived on.

But I do wonder if this is too little, too late? I also appreciate TikTok's longer videos; 7 seconds turned out to be quite limiting in retrospect.

Well, we wouldn't be talking about Vine today at all if it weren't for that 7 second limit. Without it, why would anyone use it over Instagram, Twitter, etc?

Twitter had no video support and Instagram wasn't a thing yet or was just for photos (can't remember). Vine was the short YouTube or the Twitter for videos. Didn't have to be 7s that number was completely arbitrary. It could have been 3m for the same position and less restrictions

This is coming at a good time with the surveillance concerns in TikTok.
