> No one is seriously going to leave GitHub because of reliability
had a discussion with the team yesterday, literally every one wants to leave and looking for the best alternative

This so closely describes my company. We’re so fed up with GHA that we’re charting an off ramp. It’s been happening in the background for a few months already but whenever there is a major outage I swear we add one more person to effort.
Migrating sucks but so does having 500 engineers who can’t do any coding work for a day every {month,week}
Maybe it will help to return to a more git oriented workflow instead of a GitHub oriented one.
When GH has an outage like yesterday, we cant even formally review code. Sure, people could pull others branches and read them and discuss in chat but a dedicated tool for distributed code review is pretty important for most teams. It wasn’t that long ago we were a small company and GH’s reliability wasn’t such a nightmare so using it for what it offers made a lot of sense for the business.
The calculus has changed recently.
I'd be really glad if you do actually, but my hopes are weak.
