Every company at some point has some kind of incidents. It just happens. GitHub is most of the time rock solid and doesn’t deserve to be judged based on one major incident like this. On the contrary they need our support. Bitbucket and GitLab both have had problems of the same magnitude.

But a multiple origin solution seems the most sensical. We have failover for everything infra and services.. it seems we now need failover for cloud-based code. It just seems logical, especially if all 3 of the big cloud providers have big incidents.
I think it's more about people not looking for alternatives while things are going smooth. Now they will, even though the grass my not be greener.
Why does GitHub need my support ?
