That just turns their hiring.md file into an additional job board to keep their jobs updated in.

It turns GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket into search engines for jobs. That's the point.

That's much preferred than searching dozen of different job board aggregators and all the companies' websites that are not fed into such aggregators.

It's not going to replace the existing job boards. It would be an addition.

Plus hiring is typically done by non-technical people. They're not going to update a markdown file in a Git repository.
