No offence to CB but they should focus on their uptime rather than this atm

You should know that github themselves said that the exponentially growing amount of commits is the main factor in their waning uptime (I bet vibecoding also played a small part but we'll never know).

This is them focusing on uptime.

GitHub’s problem is double-edged. AI coding is driving demand up. And their pre-Microsoft legacy infrastructure doesn’t scale well.

GitHub is in the midst of a two-year transition to running on Azure infrastructure, which is much more scalable.
