Github has been down hundreds of times this year alone. They have reported outages 72 times this year and there are multiple times when services are unavailable and they don't report it on the status page.

I don't see how the two situations are comparable

There's no evidence that the exact same doesn't happen with GitLab. I've had it (consistently) 500 on me in the past when there's nothing on their status page to indicate any issues.

Okay Agreed, Except

That's not the point of discussion. I didn't say Gitlab doesn't lie about it or heck, That it doesn't have worse uptime than Github.

My argument is that a company erasing 300GB production database once is not a stain on their competency and that it can not be compared to a company which has very frequent outages which also happens to lie when they have outages.
