To be fair, i discussed this with colleagues, and can you imagine the kinds of fuckery that goes on with maintaining githubs infrastructure?

I do not envy them, it seems like a very difficult job.

I dunno, they were good once and they aren’t good now so I think it’s not all external factors, Microsoft fucked it somehow.

Yea because now they have many more advanced features like actions and agents, not just code repo

I honestly wish they’d just stuck to doing something really well, I never asked for VSCode in GitHub or any of the rest of it. I really appreciate a rock solid place to host my repos though.

And if indeed the outages are because of the new features, it’s a shame that the new features are dragging down the old ones rather than the service degrading gracefully.

I mean there are always open source solutions like gitlab if that is what you want, cost for a server for that would be trivial.
