lol. you're leaving for the outages?

i left the day microslop bought it. i didn't delete my repos... but I switched to using gitlab and now codeberg

I'm actually surprised to hear about the outages. i thought they were reliable....

This chart shows the problem fairly well. (Even if the scale is set to make a point)

Forced to use GitHub Professional and lost count how often GitHub is just standing in my way with things not responding often times without any error message.

That fucking unicorn error page haunts my dreams.

interesting. my bet is because when microslop bought them they switched the infrastructure to azure immediately, and it was probably on something better before

GitHub didn’t work at all most of the day yesterday

They were for a long while, before they got borged.
