I noticed that too — outages seem to happen during peak usage or when there’s a big rollout happening in the background. A couple of quick alternatives I fall back on:

Claude.ai – better at longer context, feels “calmer.”

Perplexity.ai – solid for quick factual Q&A.

Local models (like Llama 3 or Mistral via Ollama) – handy if you’re into running things offline.

Honestly, moments like this remind me why it’s worth having multiple tools in the workflow, not just one.
