It’s quite unfortunate. I’m hoping the post some kind of RCA/analysis. I know I would if we had a month with only 2 9s of uptime.

they're doing the usual corporate status page uptime lying: https://i.imgur.com/vy7onDT.png https://www.githubstatus.com/uptime

Check the dropdown. Select for example "Issues, PR, Projects". Shows 4 days of issues in feb.

This seems to be the third or so day in the past week I've had issues with GitHub around this time in the morning. They've typically been really good. I'm a bit surprised there hasn't been more talk about it on HN.

Still miles better than BitBucket.

Yea, I'm surprised I didn't see anything from the outage yesterday.

They seem to be doing heavy work on it. Now on Mobile you can't see repos in "Desktop Mode" which is unfortunate. I have to tell my browser to pretend to be in desktop mode. Plus the regex post from the other day seems to imply they are working on new things when somebody from GH replied in said thread. I don't mind improvements, but don't break production guys...

Wow. The apparent level of conceit with which you ended your message is astounding. Do you think they intend to break production? You don’t mind? There are real people behind this who are hard at work delivering us a great product, we should cut them some slack.

I apologize if you meant it differently but it came off a little off-putting.

They also changed the "Group Membership" dialog to be paginated when you add a new person to an organization. We have over 200 groups so now I have to page through for ever new hire we add. There's not even a search option.

I'm sure the pagination might better for performance, but it's terrible UI.

Intentions are meaningless. If you're providing a service, (especially charging money for said service), you can't break it because "you're hard at work".
