My problem with Vine is that it was really hard to find good content. There were so many people just making clips of themselves doing stupid crap. Honestly, the only good stuff I found on Vine while it was up was Thomas Sanders' content.
- pavel_lishin 10y agoIsn't that a problem with Twitter, Instagram, etc, as well?
- douche 10y agoTwitter, you can at least follow people that you already know are interesting. Network effects and retweeting expose you to interesting content that they stumble across, and previously unknown accounts that produce interesting content.
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoYes. But Vine is in the video space, where it's competing with YouTube, which has a massive back catalogue, and an abundance of originality, good content and talent (yes, really. You may not be looking in the right places, but it's there), which is readily discoverable, and already well known, (CGPGrey, ViHart, Veritasium, VSauce, Vlogbrothers, Schmoyoho, PewDiePie, Markiplier, CrashCourse, Extra Credits, The Jimquisition, Zero Punctuation, TotalBiscuit, PBSDigital, Errant Signal, XboxAhoy, charlieissocoollike, lonelygirl15, The Show With Ze Frank, TomSka, Eddsworld, CollegeHumor, The Game Theorists, Songs to Wear Pants to, MinutePhysics, Hannah Hart, and countless more). Even if you don't like all of it, there's usually something there for you.
