+1 here as well.

However if we are going to really treat them all equally, to me that
implies that we should have official community accounts on all of them,
and we should have the release announcements automatically pushed to all
of them the way the X announcements are now.

Also, is there an equivalent to "pinning the tweet" on all of those?

We should absolutely not link to a service where we don't have an *active* account.  The point isn't linking to the service itself, the point is (obviously) to link to *our* presence on the service. At this moment, that's pretty much just X, but there is WIP on fixing that, independently of what's linked.

At this point there are no social media accounts anymore on the website.
People do not have a chance to follow the project on the most common accounts.

Is there any plan to link to existing presences?
And what happened to the WIP for other platforms?
