Is Github losing any significant business from all these outages? Curious because for a long time we as an industry maintained that reliability and brand value are business critical; but seems like they are cared very little now a days. Happy to be corrected about my perception too.
There was another really bad incident today: https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/zsg1lk7w13cf > We have resolved a regression present when using merge queue with either squash merges or rebases. If you use merge queue in this configuration, some pull requests may have been merged incorrectly between 2026-04-23 16:05-20:43 UTC.

I've been on a somewhat binge to move a bunch of stuff to self-hosting at home. Yesterday I finally completed my self-hosted Forgejo instance at home, together with Linux, Windows (via VM) and macOS (via Mac Mini) runners/workers for CI/CD, so everything finally lives in-house (literally), instead of all source code + Actions being on GitHub but the infrastructure actually living locally. This is probably the first t…
I self-host Forgejo for personal and indie-startup purposes, and like it well enough. The downside with that is it misses one of the key purposes of GitHub: posturing for job-hunting/hopping. It's another performative checkbox, like memorizing Leetcode and practicing delivery for brogrammer interviews. If you don't appear active on GitHub specifically (not even Codeberg, GitLab, nor something else), you're going to g…
https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/ says they are down to 88.15% uptime. Even when you consider uptime of individual components, their best is 99.78%, so two nines.

Codeberg and Sourcehut are doing it for free, for open source. Corporate probably won't ever move off Github, because they need the prestige of using Github - the actual service quality is completely irrelevant. This is an aspect of the enshittocene epoch - I repeat, quality is irrelevant to corporates.

Gitea has a paid plan. On Forgejo forums you can find 3rd party offers of paid hosting as well.

The number of consistent issues i've had with anything github-related lately is crazy. Even just browsing their site is difficult sometimes with slow loads that often just hang entirely.

I wonder if there is any correlation between them moving towards Azure. https://thenewstack.io/github-will-prioritize-migrating-to-a...
