https://wccftech.com/byte-rockets-to-top-of-u-s-ios-app-store-at-launch-tiktok-should-definitely-be-worried/ > Byte, developed by the co-creator of Vine and launched last week, is already the number one app in the U.S. iOS App Store. > Vine turned into an integral part of the online culture, allowing users to churn out six-second long videos in any genre, with comedy being the fan-favorite category for millions of users at the time. Launched back in 2012, the popularity of Vine sky-rocketed to a point that Twitter just had to buy it up only to shutter the service as a proper monetizing model could not be achieved to satisfy content creators. No points for guessing which platform the creators ended up going to after Vine was laid to rest.
