Yeah, I think this one might be the straw that broke the camel's back and our team will look to migrate to something non-microsoft to be away from this nonsense.
What are the alternatives?

Would you move hosting/CI before Origin is available, or are you basically stuck on GitHub until then?
I feel stuck on Github until the next generation of forges (I assume Linear is working on one too, and the Pierre guys, and there's probably more) are ready. When it works, I'm actually a huge fan of Github. It just doesn't work reliably and it's a huge operational risk to not be able to freaking deploy. We'll most likely switch to self-hosted GHE in the near-term while continuing to evaluate alternative forges — For…

#213Does anyone recommend an alternative? We've already moved our runners to blacksmith, looking for a control plane as well. We are tiny startup that ships at high velocity and this kind of downtime is highly disruptive for us
Re: GitHub Actions and Pages are experiencing degraded availability
#214Given the recent history of outages, I wonder how many are seriously considering moving off GitHub for anything other than code hosting. I mean actions / workflows.

You can always pay for it, use your own machine, use a VM on your own machine, or if you are developing non-slop FOSS, ask Codeberg.
Does Codeberg support Windows runners at all? Forgejo only seems to have unofficial third-party builds of the Forgejo Actions runner for Windows.

Re: GitHub Actions and Pages are experiencing degraded availability
#219I don't think this portents anything great for software in general. We're a good year+ into the use LLMs for all major bits of software that we all rely upon and GitHub here is down to one 9 of uptime. I've been using GitHub for a _long_ time, my first commits there go back to August 2009!, and I honestly don't recall GitHub going down as much as it has in the last year. I'm sure there's other things happening in the…
