Hacker and hopeless optimist

I built as a way of reclaiming social media by and for humans, social media for people not AI or corporations

@TaylorLorenz This is a long rambling post which needs editing...

@ponekeben Given how they were painted as left wing and want to be centrist, i get why they're correcting to talk about National & the coalition government a lot. But also, philosophically if you a have the political party version of a McKinsey consultancy it's going to lean centre-right..

@ethanjmanera @nzherald Hey @ethanjmanera how does it feel to be used by the folks exposed in Dirty Work? Do you want to be mentioned in the next book?

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!

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.

@callebtc It was incredibly fun to learn and play with. Now kind of pointless, but at the time it was one of the most fun i had in an undergrad comp-sci class.

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.

[Matthew Green @matthew_d_green]

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.

[divine.video @divinevideoapp]

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 👀

@secondzeit landlords should be required to take drug tests in order to keep their tax breaks.

@AlexiLalas tell me you didn't bother reading the rules for how FIFA rankings work without telling me.

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.

@blogboynick For TOP to claim their status as a centrist party which will work with everybody they need to be able to work with National. Labour already said they'd be open so it's not something TOP needs to repeat.
