Actions being down is one thing - I can't even land a PR.

GitHub added new webhook IP ranges this morning, curious if that's related.

first time seeing "git push" on github throwing an "Internal Server Error"

gitea, forgejo, gitlab CE, and ssh still working fine

I thought it was odd that we'd not had one of these for a few weeks. A few hours ago GH pages just would not publish at all.. and the status page showed as fine, I guess it's now cascaded into a proper event.

Who even runs GitHub at this point?

Spent 5 minutes debugging why my builds were failing... then recalled github is not google when it comes to availability... checked status.github.com ... and voila.. there it is.

One of the PRs I eventually managed to open 8 mins ago had a page flash up a generic error page containing a badge error of: "Unexpected token '<', "<!DOCTYPE "... is not valid JSON"

"Rewrite GitHub in Rust. Make no mistakes."

codefloe.com is still up

So, "git push" is down ... how are github engineers gonna push the fix now?

Based on the comments in this thread, you'd think that Reddit was down.

The last time GitHub went down was...yesterday. GitHub is never going to improve and at this point. You might as well say that the AI chatbots, Tay and Copilot are maintaining the platform and are running it into the ground. No CEO of GitHub to go to as well. It is time to self host instead of using something as broken as GitHub as I predicted 6 years ago.

Well it is a Wednesday. I noticed because SSO was down. They don't even report on that as far as I can tell.

That's what you get when the bulk of open source is now depending on Microsoft.

Embarrassing that a multi-billion dollar corporation that other billion dollar corporations depend on seems to be fine with breaking their clients workflows. Was github always this shoddy or has something changed to cause this many outages?
