The GitHub Status shows 14 incidents affecting Git Operations this year alone [1]. That's quite a lot, considering it's only May. I wonder if the outages were always this frequent and just get more publicity on here now, or whether there was a significant increase in outages fairly recently.

Does GitHub provide uptime stats? Seems very unreliable recently.

https://www.githubstatus.com/history seems to show incidents in the last 3 months:

* March - 20 incidents

* April - 12 incidents

* May - 4 incidents (so far)

Why don't we all collectively mirror our repos to gitlab and switch development to there during the monthly outage?

Enterprise says I have to use this unreliable garbage.

It's definitely no less reliable than GitLab, where a good 300GB of database data got deleted in production by accident...

Substitute capital expenditure for operating expenses? With interest rates going up? It was already a tough sell with negative real rates...
