You rarely see "outages" even if that what happens in reality, in marketing speak it's referred to as 'degraded performance' i.e. the cheque is in the post, your data is in the tubes on it's way, it's just slow! A business oriented lie.
Far more useful are the 'independent status pages' maintained by enthusiasts that are unaffiliated with whomever they are measuring.

What do you mean by enterprise cloud? The default GitHub enterprise cloud plan is hosted on the same infra as “public github.” Do you have a link to what you mean?
It'd make sense if there was a "you get what you pay for" attitude at MS re: public GitHub. It's not a good position for the free users, but, what else are you gonna do? Stand up your own? Retrain yourself on your SDLC in a new platform?
They need a competitor.

I think it is fair to blame Github if they repackage other services. We run a much smaller service than Github and have all sort of fallbacks to different providers and different models.

'GitHub Enterprise Server' is hosted on your own resources, not their cloud. It makes sense that it wouldn't have the same downtime as their cloud, but that's hardly relevant.
'GitHub Enterprise Cloud' is their offering hosted on their own resources and what I suspect most enterprise customers use. It's what I at $extremelylargecompany use. It follows the same uptime/downtime as their public non-enterprise offering.

Erase the severity and then present them all as “GitHub outages” or reduce it to an uptime graph.
I’m not happy with GitHub’s recent major outages either, but there is an ugly side of the pile-on where we’re getting these vibecoded attention seeking websites and social media posts to collect upvotes, likes, karma, and attention that blur the lines between small service degradations and total site outages to be more dramatic.
