Funny Vines, formerly VineAholic, is an American YouTube channel and the most popular YouTube channel solely dedicated to posting compilations of short videos on Vine.
Vine was an American social networking short-form video hosting service where users could share six second-long, looping video clips. It was founded in June 2012; then the owner of Vine sold it to Twitter in October 2012, well before its official release on January 24, 2013. It was shut down 4 years later, because the site was not able to find a sustainable business model as it was viewed by many advertisers and promotors as a platform that did not suite well for promoting their products.
