TikTok is pretty much a carbon copy of Vine. If Twitter wasn't able to make money from Vine, ultimately choosing to shut it down, is this a sign that apps like TikTok are fundamentally unprofitable or that Twitter is just a poorly run company unable to monetize their products?

Profit is the least of their concern. Tik Tok is backed by the Chinese govt. The more downloads the more spying.
