Microsoft forcing them to switch to Azure seems to not have helped.
- pm90 5y agoIs there any evidence that their issues are due to them using Azure?
- JohnWhigham 5y agoGitHub has these ~hour-long outages like twice a year. In the early 2010s it used to be much more frequent.

It's worse in some ways than, say, 5 years ago, because... GH offers more services. And more people end up relying on those, so, there's more than can go wrong. And when it does, it usually has a bigger impact. Some client projects have tied everything to GH/Actions/CI/deploy/etc. When there's any issue with GH, something is affected. Other clients have more distributed services (bitbucket/gh/gitlab/etc), which is ... sometimes less convenient, but usually means something is still up and functioning even if something else is interrupted.
