I agree, for what that's worth.

However, this is an unexpected bell curve. I wonder if GitHub is seeing more frequent adversarial action lately. Alternatively, perhaps there is a premature reliance on new technology at play.

I pulled my project off github and onto codeberg a couple months ago but this outage still screws me over because I have a Cargo.toml w/ git dependency into github.

I was trying to do a 1.0 release today. Codeberg went down for "10 minutes maintenance" multiple times while I was running my CI actions.

And then github went down.

Cursed.

I think it was generally news when there were upages and the site was up. Similar with twitter for that matter.

Not from my recollection. Not like this. BitBucket on the other hand had a several day outage at one point. That one I do recall.

I remember periods of time when GitHub was down every few weeks, my impression is that it's become more stable over the years.
