    Help encourage alternatives by trying Gitlab.com and Codeberg.org and others, and please star some projects there to help motivate more options.Self-promo links below if you would like to star a few of mine good for developers.https://gitlab.com/architecture-decision-recordhttps://gitlab.com/ways-of-workinghttps://gitlab.com/coordinated-vulnerability-disclosure

    I encourage everyone to switch to Forgejo. We ditched GitHub and could not be happier. The experience is smoother, faster and distraction-free.Our runners are faster, our CI is smoother than ever. Transitioning was a matter of a few hours, which we took as a fun hackaton.

    Cannot even merge code, this is the limit for me. We are prioritising migration to a different platform and this time going to decouple CI - right now we have too many points of failure on one vendor.

    It is not working at all, I can not load any repo pages.Github.com's promise is that it can be the central broker of open source code because it is reliable.That promise hasn't been kept recently.That said, Github is hard to displace and it is similar to the era of the Twitter Fail Whales. It was a sign of growth that couldn't be properly managed but there was not viable alternative.

    Whatever it is, it seems to be getting worse: started with pull requests and Actions being down, now I can't even list my repos. Might be the worst one yet.

    I'm seeing "Merge status cannot be loaded" when attempting to merge a PR.It's a shame I had to go to HN to check if I was the only one instead of relying on their status page that they link.

    It's been a downward spiral since covid.Enterprise works ok-ish, but the standard version has daily issue ever since.

    Yep, started with PR changes not being visible, but now can't load entire repos. I see the pink unicorn.

    GitHub is too important to fail, and they obviously can't fix their up-time problem. Shouldn't they open-source core and/or problematic components and ask for public to fix it? this is not sustainable. It's literally blocking development/productivity worldwide.
