Over the last 90 days the status page (https://www.githubstatus.com/) shows around 2 nines of uptime for most services.

I trust that about as much as I trust Volkswagen's emissions numbers.

The Missing GitHub Status Page (https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/) gives a better overview of their frequent outages.

at least enterprise is better https://us.githubstatus.com/posts/dashboard

Apparently they deleted the Github Actions account as it shows up as ghost in PR comments.

if that's the case, such a thing is so absurd that it goes around and it becomes almost hilarious

The team got greenlight to more tokens and the problem should be fixed soon. Fingers crossed. /s

I would love to know how much of their internal workflows are being handled by AI workflows. Because this seems like the kind of thing your agent might do.

If you don't want to self-host Gitea/Forgejo, I recommend SourceHut for private repos and Codeberg for public ones. Happy to answer any questions you might have for either based on my experience!

What's wrong with codeberg for private repos?
pdpiMay 26, 2026
They only allow private repos as an exception, and only insofar as they're ancillary to open source projects.

From their FAQs[0]:

> Codeberg's mission is to promote free/libre software. Keeping software private is obviously not our primary use case, but we acknowledge that private repositories are useful or necessary at times.

I'm more than happy with https://codefloe.com for private repos. The service is blazing fast and the maintainer does a great job keeping it up-to-date with recent Forgejo releases.

For private repos I just have a folder on my NAS that I run `mkdir <repo name> && git -C <repo name> init --bare` in. Works great.

Other post: GitHub Actions down again today [0]

Technically this one was earlier but the other one has more traction.

I think Anthropic should buy Github after buying bun and everything in between.
FelipeCortezMay 26, 2026
so they can rewrite it in Rust?

I commented on the other post, but GHA's awful reliability, ergonomics and performance have caused me to quit my job and work on https://harmont.dev.

Anyone else notice that the first/near top comment on every HackerNews post lately is someone saying something along the lines of "I had X problem so I went and started working on Y solution if you want to give it a look?"

I don't want to delve into it any further - but something about it seems incongruous. It's not spam it's submarine marketing.

I mean, it is a community that self-selects for builders and startup-types.

Same thing's all over Reddit, too.
