GitHub isn't really a single point of failure. You could easily keep working on your branches and/or forks and re-sync once the server is back up.

- edejong 10y agoThat's definitely true, but PRs, comments and bug reports are not distributed, nor are many bridges between Github and external tools (issue trackers like JIRA/Trello, build-servers). This might seem pedantic, but it creates an asymmetry: commits and branches distributed, as opposed to PRs and comments.
