Maybe we need a cultural shift then, because if one needs to use a platform like X, nowadays owned and operated by fascists, then there's something deeply wrong with the tech world. It'd probably take a lot of effort to do so, but it'd be absolutely worth it.

Besides, even if that wasn't a consideration, only posting the announcement to X is just crazy. As others have said, you'd expect for GitHub to make the announcement on their official website. Any paying client would then just follow that for their announcements.

I just spent a few minutes trying to think of a better place, I can't think of one, there is no professional social network, and linkedin doesn't qualify.

You don't need a professional network. This is a company informing customers about a security issue. It should be on their website. Anyone can subscribe to the RSS feed if they are a customer. Remember RSS? There is no need to add a social network element.

While I do agree, I feel like they control the entire discussion if they run their own rss.
