There's never been a single reported case of popcorn lung caused by vaping, and the vape manufactures have basically all chosen to switch to something other than diacetyl out of an abundance of caution. It was only ever in some of the "creamy" and popcorn type flavors anyway.

That said, don't start vaping. It's great as harm reduction because it's better than cigarettes, but unless you're using it to stop smoking cigarettes, don't vape.

It is also a cleaner delivery mechanism for THC than combustion.

Wait actually? I was always under the impression that disposable thc vapes were fucking terrible for you. Do you have any links for me? I stopped using them because I thought they were killing me

not OP but I'm pretty sure they don't mean disposable vapes (which should not be used by anyone ever due to their environmental impact) but rather the herb vaporizers you can use to put ground weed in and then inhale the vaporized contents.

I got one for myself and it's just an all around swell experience.

Yep, I like my dynavap. It's a much more pleasant experience than a joint or pipe.
