There's an image going around showing a bar chart of GitHub uptimes over the last several years. It was steady as a rock until Microsoft took over, then it started dipping like crazy and never recovered.

Man, remember when three nines was the standard uptime guarantee?

Oh how the turntables....

If anyone is interested in heading back toward hosting your own infra, lmk and I may come back to tech.
