Welcome @TopmanTech! Let me see if I can clarify for you.

is it like github stopped the service permanently…

The change in the referenced blog post is that we’ve stopped redirecting GitHub Pages sites from *.github.com. Any sites you had on Pages still work on *.github.io.

As an example, before that change if you typed in twitter.github.com, it would automatically redirect to twitter.github.io. Now you have to go to twitter.github.io directly, as twitter.github.com no longer redirects you automatically.

Nothing was deleted and the service is still running. In most cases all you have to do is update your URLs from <user>.github.com to <user>.github.io.

Hope that makes sense!
