  After over 5 years, we're saying goodbye to the Periscope app (by March 2021). We shared detail on why we made this decision and some of the steps we're taking to support the Periscope community through this transition in this blog post: https://periscope.medium.com/ ...

  Periscope was the first live streaming platform I joined 5 years ago & it helped a career change, bring my art to a global audience, grow confidence in public speaking & so much more! I've met the team in SF a number of times & made many epic community connections. Thank you! 🙌 h…

  I still remember years ago in the Twitter lunchroom when @jess said “wanna see something cool?” & showed me a pre-launch version Periscope on her phone. I don't ever remember understanding & liking a product so quickly. Under 10 seconds. Periscope lives on inside of Twitter. 🙌 ht…

  Dang, you're really leaving us @PeriscopeCo 😭 Twitter and Periscope are the platforms that launched me. I was the first to live stream a wedding on the platform and I've since used it regularly to connect with people all over the world. Gonna miss it. ❤️ https://periscope.medium.…

  This app changed my life in many ways. I've grown so much through streaming on there. Sad, but change is for the good. I've met some of the most amazing people who will be a part of my life forever. Thanks for all the love. 💜 https://twitter.com/...

  What an incredible ride ❤️🧡💛 💚💙. I led the acquisition of Periscope and even tho the app winding down feels like an ending, @kayvz & the team brought Twitter video to life and innovated immensely on the whole consumer product. Their impact is beyond even our ambitious visions. ht…

  Farewell, Periscope! I'll always fondly remember being called “ugly” by random strangers who were disappointed that my appearance didn't meet their masturbatory needs. https://twitter.com/...

  In one of the biggest booms in video consumption, @Twitter can't give away its video streaming platform. @Twitch grew 26% to 41 million in the US alone, with many just chatting & music. Such a colossal management failure. Shareholders need to be asking serious questions here. htt…

  Same way they killed Vine. Facebook should have discontinued Instagram using this logic. https://twitter.com/...

• @jason @jason on x

  Why does Twitter keep killing amazing brands like @PeriscopeCo and @vine?????? The entire strategy from YouTube to Instagram and now SLACK is keep these things separate and let them thrive! https://twitter.com/...

  Who can forget he time we had watching Laura Loomer beg to be arrested for losing her twitter account on account of her being a white supremacist? https://twitter.com/...

  The last six years of Periscope have been an enormous amount of fun, first building the app with an incredibly smart team, and then watching it being used and enjoyed around the world. https://twitter.com/...

  Twitter shutting down Periscope has echoes of them shutting down Vine only for TikTok to basically fill that niche with 60 second instead of 6 second videos. Wonder if this opens up an opportunity for a standalone live streaming app for generation verzuz? https://periscope.medium…

  It's official: Twitter is killing Periscope because it's been “in an unsustainable maintenance-mode state, and has been for a while.” https://periscope.medium.com/ ...
