- rglullis 3y agoyesterday I couldn't set up a bunch of servers that I needed provisioned and cloudflare's API had an outage. Today if I were using github, my day would be wasted again. For all the talk about companies trying to cut out on meetings by putting a sticker price to it (this 30 minute meeting could've been an email and cost $2000), at what point do we start saying "this outage could've been avoided and cost us $5k"?
- verve_rat 3y agoAvoided how, by spending $50,000? Times that by the the number of external systems you rely on and you start seeing why we outsource that stuff in the first place.
- rglullis 3y agoHosting and running my gitea server costs me less money than a github subscription, and I spend less time at all compared to the time GH had outages this year. And I can take part of the "savings" and contribute to gitea's further development.
