running your status page from the same infrastructure is a really bad idea
Edit: I could have sworn I refreshed the page before replying to make sure someone else hadn't already responded, and I didn't see your comment jschulenklopper. Scary how similar they are lol.
Au contraire, status.gitlab.com seems to be located in NYC (in a Digital Ocean DC), and www.gitlab.com somewhere in Virginia (at Microsoft Azure?).
