When i announced Divine just under a year ago i had no idea it'd take off. Now we've been named one of Time Magazine's Best Innovations of 2026.
Big news! @TIME's Best Inventions of 2026 list is out now, and we’re over the moon to be selected as one of three in the Apps and Software category! But this award really belongs to all our Diviners who embraced that mission and made Divine what it is. You built this 💚

Turns out if you ban Airbnb's and don't allow new hotels to be constructed, you get hotel prices that are so expensive it'll kill your tourism industry. Shocking. xitter.cf/i/trending/21101963424…

The future of social media isn’t all AI or no AI. @garyvee sees a world where both coexist. A reality where platforms built entirely of AI generated content, mixed feeds like Instagram, and human-only spaces like @divinevideoapp all have a place. The key is having the choice.

Australia banned kids from social media. It didn’t work. It simply pushed kids somewhere worse.  Watch the full episode to hear what @garyvee and @rabble think parents need to do instead.

One of our goals is to change doomscrolling to joyscrolling. Social media should make you feel good, and connect you to real people. It should leave you feeling better than before you opened it, not worse. That’s exactly why we built Divine. Happy World Mental Health Day 💚

Nobody believed Gary Vee about Twitter. @garyvee was one of Twitter’s earliest and biggest users, building his audience on the platform before most people knew what it was.  He was right then. Now he thinks he knows what’s coming next. Full episode out now.

If modern public key cryptography breaks we're going to have a major problem with making society and the economy work.
Everyone is very concerned about being respectable, so I’m going to be the goofball who raises worst-case possibilities. I think there is a 1% chance we live in Minicrypt, and a 15% chance we functionally lose confidence in our existing public-key encryption algorithms.

Your feed stopped showing you people you follow. Why? @garyvee calls it interest media. Algorithms took over because relevance matters more to us than we admit. The problem is that like chocolate cake, too much of a good thing stops feeling good. That’s where we come in 👀

When twitter got started, the first person who figured out how to use it for marketing was @garyvee! I sat down with him to talk about using social media for marketing came to be and where it's going in the era of AI. youtube.com/watch?v=VOKQsuWM…

Pity Sorkin and Haugen. They've been obsoleted by the next technology moral panic.
