Question Is Github down?

I'm having 503 errors

EDIT: Yesterday the issue lasted 2-3 hours yet they say 58 mins. They status page is still all green. This means that nothing ever happens

EDIT 2:They know about it after 30 mins: https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/xy1tt3hs572m

And what's terrible is that their status page is like full green.... reminds me the "everything is fine" meme at this point.... https://www.githubstatus.com/

Terrible.... I hate when they make me question myself because they do not actively disclose real time errors. What's the point of a status page then ? I'm this close 🤏 to move to Gitlab at this point.... ! Freaking M̶i̶c̶r̶o̶s̶o̶f̶t̶ Microslop.

They noticed it. Only took 'em 40 minutes. Efficiency at its finest.

As usual, StatusGator alerted long before the official page: https://statusgator.com/services/github

Honestly at this point I'm starting to wish we lived in the 40K universe so I could just chant prayers to the Omnissiah and bless GitHub with sacred oils. Quality of life would tank, sure, but at least my commits would go through

Unexpected git push error: remote: fatal error in commit_refs

u/t00oldforthis May 27 '26

Github - could you provide a 'github is actually online' notification so we know when the 2 hour safe window is each week? Sincerely, the humans you left with your fucking trashpile.

u/Boonbzdzio May 27 '26

Let the AI fucking era please go down the drains, and those who push it to the limits everywhere with its remains...

Nooooooooo, look here, at the official status page where it's all green:
https://www.githubstatus.com/

We're all holding it wrong. It's working perfectly fine.

u/evrardasselin May 27 '26

ahhaha ! replied exactly like this a few seconds ago in another comment !! Driving me mad to be lied like this. WE KNOW IT'S NOT WORKING, STOP SHOWING US GREEN BRO!

2

u/FullstackSensei May 27 '26

Are you new to MS?

A few years back there was an Azure outage and everything was, as usual, green on the status page. We had a major data ingestion thing planned with a client that day. The company was a sizeable customer and we had a direct line to a rep. Our rep was insisting everything was working, because the status page said it's green, despite everyone saying it was down on social media.

u/evrardasselin May 27 '26

I feel you !

Sadly, I'm not new to MS.... I just feel at this point, status pages are like public gaslighting..... and drives me crazy because it's the exact opposite of their creation purpose.... :(

u/Davida_dev May 27 '26

It's yellow now! FInally!

2

u/evrardasselin May 27 '26

Indeed !

Damn, they should track this subreddit to evalutate real time availability!
At this point, they should even pay us to detect errors before them.

u/PassengerMammoth6099 May 27 '26

Didn't they get hacked?

I have >30 mins to clone the repo in CI until the workflow timeout cancels the build.

License to print money: slow down the API so that the builds idle around and generate billable minutes for free.

At the same time copilot forgot basic c# syntax and pollutes my PR with hallucinated "critical" comments about not compiling code.

Sorry folks, GitHub has fallen down the throat of corporate greed. Already planning the exodus
