Twitter to Shut Down Periscope
** **Streaming App to Cease Operations
** **End of an Era for Live Broadcast Platform
**In a breaking announcement, Twitter has decided to shut down its live streaming service, Periscope. The platform, which was launched in 2015, will officially cease operations on March 31, 2023.
The decision to end Periscope follows years of declining usage and a shift in Twitter's strategic priorities. A company spokesperson cited the need to focus on core competencies and stated that Periscope's reach and impact had not met expectations.
Periscope users have been notified of the shutdown and given the opportunity to download their content before the platform goes dark. After March 31, all Periscope accounts and broadcasts will be permanently deleted.
The closure of Periscope marks the end of an era for live streaming on Twitter. The platform had once been a popular destination for users to broadcast live events, share news, and connect with audiences in real-time. However, its use has diminished in recent years with the rise of other live streaming platforms such as TikTok and Instagram Live.
