Desiter

Desiter is a short-lived online video platform that allowed users to upload, share, and stream video content. The service was launched in April 2012 and operated under the ownership of Chinese technology firm MR-Chat.net. Unfortunately, the platform suffered from technical issues and a lack of users, ultimately leading to its closure in the summer of 2012.

During its short existence, Desiter gained attention for its potential as a video sharing platform, especially among international users. The service did not restrict uploads from users outside of the United States, unlike some other video hosting platforms available at the time. Desiter's service provided users with the ability to upload videos in a variety of formats and to watch a wide range of content.

However, despite its potential, Desiter encountered significant challenges that led to its downfall. It struggled to compete with well-established video sharing platforms such as Vimeo and YouTube, which had larger user bases and more resources dedicated to the platform. Additionally, Desiter's business model was not clear, and the company did not generate any significant revenue.

The closure of Desiter has had little lasting impact on the video sharing landscape, as other platforms have continued to evolve and improve. Today, video hosting services remain an essential part of online content creation and community-building. Despite its short-lived existence, Desiter holds value as an early example of a new and innovative approach to video sharing.
