Nice! I still remember the old GitHub status page which showed and reported on their uptime. No surprises they took it offline and replaced it with the current one when it started reporting the truth.

replyThat's not at all how you measure uptime. The per area measures are cool but the top bar measuring across all services is silly.
I'm unsure what they are targeting, seems across the board it's mostly 99.5+ with the exception of Copilot. Just doing math, 3 (independent, which I'm aware they aren't fully) 99.5 services brings you down to an overall "single 9" 98.5 healthy status but it's not meaningful to anyone.
It depends whether the outages are overlapped or not. If the outages are not overlapped then that is indeed how you do it since some of your services being unavailable means your service is not fully available.
replyThey are overlapped. You can hover over the bars and some bars have multiple issues.
replyI mean, there's a big difference between primary Git operations being down and Copilot being down. Any SLAs are probably per-service, not as a whole, and I highly doubt that someone just using a subset of services cares that one of the other services is down.
replyCopilot seems to be the worst offender, and 99% of people using Github likely couldn't care less.
It's interesting to see that copilot has the worst overall. I use copilot completions constantly and rarely notice issues with it. I suspect incidents aren't added until after they resolve.
replyCompletions run using a much simpler model that Github hosts and runs themselves. I think most of the issues with Copilot that I've seen are upstream issues with one or two individual models (e.g. the Twitter API goes down so the Grok model is unavailable, etc)
replyDo I misunderstand or does your page count today's downtime as minor? I would not count the web UI being mostly unusable as minor. Does this mean GitHub understates how bad incidents are? Pr has your page just not yet been updated to include it?
replyToday's isn't accounted for on that page yet
replyGreat project, thanks for building and sharing!
