On the flip side, it looks like Slack is back up for me but their status page is also lagging at the tail-end. I highly doubt they would manipulate their uptime status for SLA purposes. Highly doubtful that companies that sign SLAs would depend on their status page to determine whether or not the contract was met.

I agree, I don't think it's malicious and Slack did the right thing here.

My comment was more of a dig at Github specifically. Recently things haven't been working for me (from my perspective an outage) and when you go to their status page it just says "Degraded performance". When your performance has degraded to the point of failure it's time to acknowledge that is in fact an outage...
