Seems to me that any readily discernible format of listing any reasonably frictionless contact method should be viewed as ok...
PGP, ricochet, IPFS, postal mail, email, CJDNS, telephone, twitter, ICQ, blockchain message, whatever.

Nor would closed source or paid services likely be a 'reasonably frictionless' means of communication for many in this space.
