And how often that has happened? Seems a little harsh
I don't see how the two situations are comparable
There's no evidence that the exact same doesn't happen with GitLab. I've had it (consistently) 500 on me in the past when there's nothing on their status page to indicate any issues.
That's not the point of discussion. I didn't say Gitlab doesn't lie about it or heck, That it doesn't have worse uptime than Github.
My argument is that a company erasing 300GB production database once is not a stain on their competency and that it can not be compared to a company which has very frequent outages which also happens to lie when they have outages.
