possibly Azure?
Doesn't look like it, unless the status-page update is also affected :) https://status.azure.com/en-us/status
Here we go again [0] and again [1] and again [2] and again [3]. Time to reset the counter once again. Now everything there is degraded performance. Oh dear.

I’m tired of them now, anyone using hosted solutions should know this by now and they’ve made that choice.
Personally I believe people underestimate how easy it is to host your own services.
But I’m sick of having the conversation over and over, if people aren’t willing to investigate then, what’s the saying: “you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink”

Maybe these are just a bunch of coincidences, but I have a feeling that GitHub is being poorly run recently. Apart from quite frequent uptime issues, it seems that Github Actions is pretty half-baked and they completely botched the migration of Dependabot (for example, take a look at this issue and especially, how it was handled: https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/issues/3253 )
However, scrolling back through the status page's history for the last year shows that there between 6 and 12 incidents every month, and it often hovers at the high end of that range.
That has to be an utter misery for anyone who's on call.
OT but why did it capitalize the title like that? I submitted "GitHub is having issues". I don't see that for other submissions (unless people manually edit them afterwards). EDIT: Before the change to "GitHub was having issues" it had converted my original submission from "GitHub is having issues" to "GitHub Is Having Issues".
For people using GitHub Actions how often do these types of incidents impact your CI/CD?

It seems that status pages never work properly in those kind of situations. The only reliable source of information seems to be twitter and HN

Cue the age old argument chain about outsourcing responsibility vs having control of downtimes.

Security risk isn't a one-and-done decision. It's a changing landscape and, arguably, there are far too many eggs in the GitHub basket for this not to be something people might want to think twice about now.
What's the reason these Git services have so many issues all the time?
A ton of companies are using these tools literally 24/7, at most of my jobs Github/Gitlab being down meant most of us would just be spending half of our time faking working (rare are the people who could just do "offline" dev for half a day without any external input/output)
Slack could be down it had less impact overall.
