Welcome Home.

Divine is bringing back the six-second videos that shaped internet culture — on a new protocol where creators own what they make and everyone has more say over their feeds. It's your playground for human creativity and connection, in all its weird, wonderful, technicolor glory.

We've brought 2.1 million Vines back to life from the original archives, and we're building the place where the next ones get made. No algorithms deciding what you see. No AI slop. Just quick bursts of real human creativity.

• No slop. All human. Our systems are designed to catch and remove machine-generated content, and our community flags what slips through. We might not catch it all, but we're committed to keeping Divine as human-only as possible.
• Own what you make. Choose what you see. Divine is built on Nostr, a decentralized social protocol. Your identity, your content, and your followers are yours — they work across the whole Nostr ecosystem, not just our apps.
• Joy scrolling > doom scrolling. Feeds shaped by your curiosity, not an ad-driven black box. We're building "choose your experience" algorithms so your feed works for you.
• Community-built. Everything here is open source. We're a band of thoughtful rascals building this with and for the community — and we'd love your help.

Everything below is open source and open to contributions.

Nostr (Notes and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays) is a simple, open protocol for decentralized social networking. Here's how Divine uses it:

• Identity: You have a cryptographic keypair. Your public key is your identity, and you sign all your content with your private key. No email, no phone number, no company owns your account.

• Content: Videos are published as Nostr events (kind 34236) containing metadata and links to the actual video files. These events are signed and can be verified by anyone.

• Social Graph: Follows, likes, reposts, and comments are all Nostr events. Your social connections aren't locked into Divine — they work across the entire Nostr ecosystem.

• Relays: Content is stored on relays — servers that accept and serve Nostr events. You can use any relay, run your own, or use multiple for redundancy.

Blossom is a protocol for decentralized media storage that complements Nostr. Since Nostr events are lightweight (just JSON), large files like videos are stored separately:

• Videos are uploaded to Blossom servers and addressed by their SHA-256 hash
• The hash is included in the Nostr event, linking the metadata to the media
• Multiple Blossom servers can host the same file, providing redundancy
• Anyone can verify file integrity by checking the hash

This separation keeps Nostr relays fast while enabling rich media content.

Divine integrates C2PA (Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity) to verify where media comes from — one of the tools we use to detect AI-generated and manipulated content and keep the playground human.

Keycast provides OAuth 2.0 authentication with NIP-46 remote signing, so you can log in and sign Nostr events without ever exposing your private keys. It issues UCAN tokens for cross-service authorization.

We're building this together, and we'd love your help — bug fixes, features, docs, or just telling us what's broken.

Creative power belongs in human hands. Divine is part of the broader movement to build a more open, decentralized internet — we believe social media should be a protocol, not a platform.
