an open source revival of 6 second looping videos made by humans
We updated how it works a bit to improve it. There is more to be done.

How do we resist #enshitification? Divine creator @rabble.nz interviewed Cory Doctorow @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy at WebSummit.

Vine star Liza Koshy talks about the arrival of diVIne and the way creators need to work to get their content in to the 6 second limit.

diVine was created as an example of a better way of making social media. Like Bluesky, we believe in a radical alternative.
@rabble.nz started work on diVine in June and published this call to action in July. Reading it will help you understand our motivations

It's completely understandable that you don't trust a social media app. Ours is an open source app on an open network. If we violate your trust then you can take your data and network. You, or a community can create a version of the divine app for free based on our code.

No estamos asociados con ninguna empresa de AI y no vamos a vender tus datos a empresas de AI. Disculpa, está todo en inglés. El equipo es medio uruguayo pero solo hicimos la página en inglés para el launch.

Jack provided funding but doesn't own or control diVIne.

Nostr is an open source protocol, that's like saying, hey i found people using the web to train AI data, so if you have your own website you're also supporting AI training.

We do not no or ever plan to provide or sell user data to AI companies for training. We will try and keep AI companies from scraping, but they are hard to stop 100%.

We are close to opening up the android beta test. Not really sure when exactly.

What are we doing with Divine? We decided to talk about it, in a longer format than 6 seconds, a conversation between @ac555.bsky.social and divine creator @rabble.nz

First time I’ve seen stop motion video on divine!

really? loops has been around for a year or two, i think
18.11.2025 13:19 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0We'll be publishing a discussion we recorded online where we get in to why divine came to be, how it was built, and why we're doing it.
So, it'll take a little longer than we'd hoped, but the wait will make divine better for everybody.
One of our team members Dr Liz Sweigart has published research on youth online safety and did her postdoc research on this cooperative ways we can create safety online:

It's still hard to get right, and we needed to work with folks to get the tools in place.
So we need to wait and get our Trust and Safety system in in to a place where we can handle the volume. I was planning on just doing T&S myself, but that won't work at scale. We had 10k people sign up for the iOS testflight in a few hours.
18.11.2025 06:07 — 👍 6 🔁 1 💬 1 📌 0We also want to make adjustments to handle the likely scale. The expectation was to have traffic and excitement similar to pixelfed or loops in the fediverse. Both good apps we admire. Instead divine exploded in to tiktok and instagram.
18.11.2025 06:07 — 👍 6 🔁 1 💬 1 📌 0We're not ready to launch yet. We found flaws in the way we were detection AI content and some bugs that let users post videos longer than 6 seconds and a few spam related issues. We've got solutions to these issues, but need to implement them.

18.11.2025 02:11 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0But we are divine. @tryloopapp.bsky.social is not us. 🫣
18.11.2025 02:10 — 👍 7 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0We’re going to have to hold back because if we launch with our current server setup it will collapse under the load. I desperately want to launch, but only if it works for people who join.
