Github's users are developers, so I think both terms are fair game. Pick the one that sounds best.

GitHub also has a large number of other users like people downloading software and reporting issues, product managers, qa testers...

I get that developers are the main drivers but it struck me as some unnecessary pandering.

Those other users probably don't get their content taken down as much.

but only those who maintain code will be affected by takedown requests on their repos

Not to be confused with Github developers, who work on plugins, calling GitHub API, etc?

You can use git to version almost anything - e.g. your essays or todo lists. That doesn't make you a developer.
