Is JIRA really globally unavailable for 4 days? That's simply incredible.
I have have been using it all week - up to and including yesterday. No issues.

Re: Atlassian products have been down for 4 days
#62We just started moving to JIRA after a few years of Gitlab, where gitlab issues feels like nobody has worked on it for a long time. And Jira has been really great. The sprint boards, concept of mapping statuses to in progress etc have all been great. My one gripe (and it’s not a small one) is performance. It still feels quite sluggish. Is Atlassian ever going to address this?
cloud or onprem? I found cloud to never match what we could get in-house,

#63Don't most people self host an instance still? I haven't used it in a few years.
Are you dismissing the importance of points driven scrums? And what about the stories? Won't someone think of the stories?!?
As the days turned into years, and the issues into subscriptions; verily did the stories themselves turn to horror stories, and finally into full horror novels, from which no sprinter could ever escape.

#64Anyone know if there's a cloud export option? I'm not an org administrator, but if I were I'd want to keep an offsite backup of our data. I could throw together a script to do it (their APIs are easy to use and their Python module covers pretty much everything) but obvs would be great if you could just do a bulk export.

#65I never hear anyone shilling for them, so now is my chance. Anyone who’s looking for a great JIRA alternative, I love Shortcut (formerly Clubhouse). It’s the best task management software I’ve used aside from the “no task management software” option. Very snappy, updates in real time, notifications make sense, and no workflow-manipulation shenanigans.
Using Clubhouse was a huge pain.
Feeling that even they don’t understand what all their epics, stories and milestones do haunted me all the time. Page load times up to 10 seconds and totally unusable on a big screen (just insanely slow after window size bigger then on avarage laptops).
Convincing my company to switch to Linear was better than any holiday.

Consider yourself fortunate, you were spared pain of using JIRA and Confluence
What are the pains of using Jira and confluence?
Jira requires a person to tailor it to your org. It can be pretty good if you have people who configure it correctly and have a workflow that suits your team/org, but that's kinda the problem: making Jira be good is a full time job. Confluence is just a terrible experience overall. Terrible editing, terrible browsing, terrible search. I've used both at multiple orgs, I've seen Jira be good, I've never seen Confluence be good.

I have no expectation of it; They do everything slowly, regardless of how simple the task, and it’s been that way for ages. And they do ridiculous amounts of configuration.
Im fairly sure at this point it’s just mountains of intermixed logic and death by a thousand cuts; I doubt they could significantly improve performance to approach something reasonable even if they wanted to.
