ByHow to Delete Your Vine Account in 7 Easy Steps
In 2012, Vine became an overnight sensation, as people from around the world began posting six-second video loops. Twitter purchased the social media platform for an astounding $30 million that same year.
Vine existed for about five years and was a unique place for users to showcase their creativity with silly content that often attracted millions of views.
