I am pretty disappointed by this too.  I really don't have much respect for people or services that just abandon things like that.  I had used Dlive a couple of times in the past and I really enjoyed it.  I need to make sure I get in and revoke my Steemconnect access.  The good thing is, there are so many developers and new things coming out on Steem that there is a good chance a replacement will come along sooner rather than later...
