They're still averaging 99.81% up-time over the last three months. This means they have been down for a total of 4 hours out of 90 days. I don't think it's all that concerning.

The gold standard here is 5 9s, not 2.

They have paying customers that are being inconvenienced by this. We lost time over this multiple times in the last few weeks.

So, not good. IMHO they are having some major issues with their release process that they need to address. Standards have slipped there; they used to be better at this.

The numbers on Github Enterprise might be different. They probably roll out changes to the free/$4 per month Github first.
My company has GH enterprise and these numbers look accurate based on my experience. We’ve noticed a lot of downtime that has impacted us.
Isn't enterprise the self-hosted solution?
I believe Enterprise has a self-hosted option, and you can have Enterprise without the self-hosting.
This kind of depends whether you have something urgent work to handle through Github. Been waiting for over an hour so I could continue my work but Github PR-functionality hasn't shown latest changes because of the currently happening outage so I cannot. Really, really annoying and wastes partially my planned work for the day.

(of course I'm working on other stuff in the meantime but splices focus unnecessarily)
