You are kind of saying it's a good idea or at least a totally acceptable one.
You're saying Twitter is famous for being famous, and looking down at someone who expresses dismay at this for being behind the times.

I do not have a Twitter account. You do. It is the cesspool of humanity and one of the reason the Internet has become so shit.
Please try not to contradict my very words to make a point. That’s very Twitter-like of you.
Fair enough! Not a fan of Twitter either.
Which is why I wouldn't want to normalize it being the kind of place where company announcements are made. IMO anyone who sees it as worrying is right, and I'm glad they're not desensitized.
Just because it's been going on for a decade doesn't make it any less crazy that Twitter has become a primary source of news.

I agree. Still, this is the state of things, and well outside my control.
Much more reasonable to oppose 2026 X as the default platform than it was to oppose 2015 Twitter as the default platform.
I mean reasonable both times but you obviously understand why one might have changed their mind in recent years
Asking on behalf of Github’s PR team: what is the suggested alternative to X to post our updates to reach the largest amount of people, companies, as well as promote our brand?
I haven’t seen any suggestion in this thread. status.github.com fails many of these criteria.
