It bears pointing out: They posted this exclusively on X, and they did not need to do that. They are not "reaching the largest amount of people, companies".

It would be one thing if they could only use one channel. If they could only choose one, that would be email, which every GitHub user has.

They could use email, as well as status.github.com, their blog (which also has an RSS feed https://github.blog/feed/), and post it on their otherwise active BlueSky (which, unlike X, does not require an account to see their posts).
