Status page currently says the only issue is notification delays, but I have been getting a lot of Unicorn pages while trying to access PRs. Edit: Looks like they've got a status page up now for PRs, separate from the earlier notifications one: https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/smf24rvl67v9 Edit: Now acknowledging issues across GitHub as a whole, not just PRs.

They added the following entry:

Investigating - We are investigating reports of impacted performance for some GitHub services. Feb 09, 2026 - 15:54 UTC

But I saw it appear just a few minutes ago, it wasn't there at 16:10 UTC.
