Mon and Dad (MS) are (generally) pretty solid with uptime.

What is happening at GH?

Rate of change trying to keep up with new challengers? Over-reliance on AI? Engineers trying to debug slop?

Yeah who knows, would be interesting to hear an inside take if any readers here are also GH devs!

They're at 93.91% uptime over the past 90 days, according to https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/ , and that doesn't even include today's outage yet.

A glorious one nine of reliability.

Yea just try requesting an SLA credit from them. According to THEIR numbers it’s 99.995%. It’s intolerable and I am going to put my full weight behind stripping as much work as we can from GHA as possible, even if leaving GitHub itself is effectively logistically and contractually impossible.

I see two nines in there…

Don't throw shade, there are two nines in that percentage for now. Miles a part though.

911 has one! :)

In large part, the move from AWS to Azure. Azure's just bad.

Based on previous posts I've seen about this, IIRC the timing seems to imply that it has more to do with them being hammered with AI slop than it does with the Azure transition. Who really knows though
