> If this was Twitter / X having these outages every single week, the entirety of HN would come out and scream 'Twitter / X falling apart!', 'It is crumbling', 'Its grinding to a halt again!' Fail Whale is a thing tho, remarkable for frequent sightings in the seas of Twitter. |

If Twitter / X went down every week like GitHub is currently doing for years, they would be called out for that, immediately. But here we have GitHub; a centralized service having over 100M+ active users and their record of uptime is far worse than Twitter / X's and it is given a pass each time it falls over every week.
By that standard, we should not be accepting GitHub's ridiculous uptime history and it has been found that GitHub is far more unreliable than most services including Twitter / X but somehow right here, GitHub is not falling apart or seen as unreliable, especially with having more than 5 incidents in one month for years?
