I will never forgive twitter for this catch and kill of a platform so full of life

Perhaps because they already had Periscope that no one used. It was a "buy competitor to kill it" play that didn't have the desired effect.

  • Amusingly Periscope was their clone of Meerkat which was briefly popular before they killed it.

    • Periscope was in closed beta when Meerkat launched. Neither was a clone of the other. Just two teams with the same idea at the same time.
