is there any reason some of these updates seem to no longer be posted on the official site? this looks to just be posted here (at least the moment) and the announcement of linux support being dropped was only posted on twitter. would be nice to always know you can find them all in one place rather than on disparate sites that one could easily miss. and that's kind of the entire point of having an official site for the game, so that all the news and info can be found there? just seems weird to not use it.
That's good feedback and I agree that having a singular source is always good. Blogs vs. dev post can depend on a number of factors. As an example, one of the reasons the Linux news was posted on reddit (with social amplification) was because that audience is quite present here. I'm all for blogs personally, especially if there's enough turnaround time for approvals, proper localization, etc. (that's a tad biased though since I write most of them).
