I haven’t posted on Byte in a while because it feels like the app is having an identity crisis. The partner program didn’t last very long and neither did in-app advertisers. Viewership has dropped dramatically and so have active users. I really wanted to love this app but

There are virtually no incentives to continue posting.

I really wish they had kept the app in closed beta until there was a solid product that wasn’t changing every 7 days. First it was 6 second looking videos, then it became 16-18? No there’s floating text, communities, etc.

These are all cool features but there’s virtually no added value for the creator.

People loved the idea of Vine being reborn, but I think it’s safe to say, that ship has come and gone.

Really hoping Byte is able to find itself and stay around for a while.
