#12Both the link and github comments are down for me too; I am unsure whether it has been down more since the acquisition but this is unacceptable to me. I have been trying to post a comment to an issue i made for the last few hours and every time it says "You can't comment at this time" which I find very misleading. It should say "Sorry, our system has a problem, please try again later". The implication of the current message is that my permissions are wrong or something else has happened.
This has bumped self-hosting all my repositories much higher up my list.

#13It could also mean that they are more active and creating more chaos due to more changes. shameless and useless advertising.
That's pretty much their conclusion
> [..] GitHub has been down more since the acquisition by Microsoft. But that could be all a part of coordinated effort to be more transparent about their service status, an effort that should be applauded.

#14It's easy to see from the uptime history [1] that there have been many more incidents in April-June than in January-April.
Don't know if that has anything to do with the Microsoft acquisition, but it is concerning.

#17Ironically this link is down for me.
Author here, just put a CDN in front of the blog so maybe that will help.

Wow, that's stark. I count 6 in April-June (2 major outages) and only 1 in January-March (0 major outages.
I wonder if COVID has affected this somehow. Anecdotally I've heard of at least one other ~peer company with a large rise in incidents/outages since April.
Strange since both companies previously had a strong culture of remote work (maybe 1/4 to 1/3 of eng was remote) going into the pandemic, so I'd be quite surprised if all-WFH contributed somehow...
