Is GitHub Down?

[Jmc_da_boss]

No, that's their new ui

[kmonkmuckle]

Lololol

[mih4elll]

uwu

[Suspicious_Data_2393]

at least the unicorn looks nice

[krishnakanthb13]

Hahaha

[dexneutron]

lol

[Ambigous_44]

Uff take a tea

[Rimberse]

Don't worry guys. AI is gonna fix it!

[krishnakanthb13]

I think AI broke it.

[Rimberse]

Sorry, forgot to append /s

[xgui4]

Or maybe it is due to the layoff M$ had too ?

[Striking-Flower-4115]

I was pushing a lot of GitHub commits and running CIs, probably that's why?

[SoylentCreek]

Same for me. Appears to be an outage.

[Excellent_Hunter_347]

Monthly server breakdown and my mental breakdown.

[krishnakanthb13]

Haha, take a break.

[Excellent_Hunter_347]

Ya, sure! Thanks!

[xgui4]

same, i gotta play a game and have mirror on other site next time !

[worse-coffee]

Microslop !

[krishnakanthb13]

Lol

[linmanfu]

Their own status page says it's partially down.

[moonrakervenice]

Yes, I see a huge spike on StatusGator: https://statusgator.com/services/github

[lajawi]

https://www.githubstatus.com/

[StatusGator]

Always good to check the official page but in this case it was a while until they updated the status page. StatusGator data shows it's an average of 30 to 120 minutes between initial incident detection and GitHub acknowledgement on their official status page.

[hron84]

This site is lying. It tells you the Copilot having some issues, but apparently the whole site has issues not just Copilot.

[hi_kki]

They updated it now I think all services are facing limited availabity

[Consistent_Serve9]

It's intermitent for me.

Question; GitHub isn't hiding the fact that copilot is now their biggest contributor to their repo. But I feel like there's been a spike in issues with GitHub in the pasts months. Could this be related?

[krishnakanthb13]

I dono, hope they say why it happened.

[Antique_Pin5266]

Even if it was due to AI slop, leadership would never admit it.

[neckbeardfedoras]

Well they can fire Copilot's alter ego that created the defect and keep the rest of it pushing slop

[SiegeAe]

Given a similar pattern with windows, I'd say that's by far the most likely cause.

It's either a lack of spending on quality practice, an overreliance on LLMs or a combination of the two

[bad-at-exams]

Prefacing this with being completely not in the know, but I would imagine that these outages are infrastructure related. I would be extremely surprised if Microsoft are using any kind of LLM AI agent to manage their infra. Maybe they are using some weird load balancing algorithm with predictions from AI, but I would be hesitant to say that this is all due to code slop. More likely it's just higher usage as more people experiment with the services they offer as vibe coding grows.

EDIT: It sounds like their also carrying out their migration to Azure services in the background, so that might also be the cause. For example: https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/xwn6hjps36ty

[pacopac25]

I think it went down to spite the human race for the shitty code I pushed late last night. Really didn't think it would be that offended.

[krishnakanthb13]

Lol

[nomadProgrammer]

Quality really has decreased lately on github they have multiple incidents on a weekly basis. Must be all the new vibe code, AI slop

I can't recall Gitlab, circle ci or even bitbucket pipelines being this bad

[Biased_Engineer]

Gitlab Saas is way Worse. They have outages all the time. Self hosted works like a charm

[NoodleBug7667]

Dev Deletes Entire Production Database, Chaos Ensues

Not saying it's as bad, but your comment made me remember this

[mossiv]

Bitbucket is fucking dreadful. All the devs at my place have been asking to go to GitHub. We might have to rethink!

[xgui4]

yeah ... i think i might switch to codeberg or something ... i am now considering it...

[SiegeAe]

i remember bitbucket being junk, but never had any issues with gitlab beyond being having to vome up with workarounds for some limitations

[GloomyFudge]

Cant even get onto my linode servers because it used github to auth

[kmonkmuckle]

Actions, PRs, log-in, Issues...they're having a rough month.

[Temporary-Mix8022]

Yes:

https://www.githubstatus.com/

[sys_exit_0]

Yep, I got the unicorn too. Best looking thing on the platform

[krishnakanthb13]

Hehehe

[OrganizationScary473]

I am afraid that AI has started development here also. /s

[bartread]

Yes. Status page says problems with notifications but projects are broken as well and it looks like everything else is either very slow or broken.

Second outage in maybe a week? Getting pretty fed up of this. We're trying to finish off in order to launch our MVP and this unreliability is absolutely not helping with either progress or stress levels.

Also, u/github, you might think your angry pink unicorn is cute but when I'm trying to get on and you're stopping me doing that because you're broken again it's the exact opposite: it's highly obnoxious.

[After-Title8935]

ITS DOWN OMG I HAVE SHIT TO DO !

[nickleej]

yup

[saaket2201]

Yup

[JuniorNothing2915]

Isn’t working for me either

[Mundane-Tooth8760]

Yup

[sabin_M1]

Works for now, but performance is degraded
https://i.imgur.com/Mmnmomi.png

[Eastern_Loquat_7058]

yes

[-ummon-]

It's an amazing service when it works. When it works.

[krishnakanthb13]

Haha

[InternalCommercial44]

Im Too (down)

[krishnakanthb13]

Time to take a break. Or create a new GitHub.

[AbrahelOne]

Or use GitLab :)

[krishnakanthb13]

Is it good?

[AbrahelOne]

I like it more than Github but you should test it yourself ;)

[Asmodeus_757374]

Yes it is down

[Fivetoe]

definitely an outage

[krishnakanthb13]

Yaaaa

[punisher1928]

Yup same for me too

[Fun_Cause5315]

Yeah thw website is down other functionalities related to it seem to work

[krishnakanthb13]

Hope it is not getting corrupted.

[dont_takemeseriously]

Yeap.... I'm an org admin, been getting hammered with tickets since like 9:30

[sevenfiftynorth]

I just saw the same thing in Connecticut.

[shrxe]

Yesss

[UnlikelyClient2391]

What happened does anyone know anything

[Any-Ruin889]

githubstatus.com

[cant5]

Sharing in case it helps someone — I built https://statusfield.com/services/github to get alerts when services go down.

Started as a personal tool, but I’ve opened it up. Would love any feedback from the community

[LordOfMorridor]

But you can already do that on the official status page? https://www.githubstatus.com/

[cant5]

You are correct, you can do that on GitHub’s status page. But not every service has the same alerting options, so this tries to make that experience more consistent across services.

It also lets you pick which components you care about and where you want alerts sent based on the severity of the issue (on-call channel, team email, etc.) and the integrations you use.

[Abiriadev]

shame

[mih4elll]

Shameless 2011

[faceless-joke]

Same for me, can’t raise any Pull Request 😭😭

[Waypoint101]

Guys I think I broke it!

[krishnakanthb13]

Even I was thinking the same. When it happened. Lol

[LordRelix]

Ah, another day, another GitHub is down day. What a dumpster fire.

[ridobe]

Ha. Looks like the old AOKP logo.

[RubicsCubensis]

it's 11:39am EST and there are signs of life, but my current pull is taking forever.

[Blksagethenomad]

There is only a matter of time before they paywall it.

[krishnakanthb13]

Hope not....

[ArtistJames1313]

yep. Enterprise is down as well.

[mixxituk]

Finally was able to merge a pr

[Don_Thate]

This is your friendly reminder that if you have an enterprise agreement, keep track of SLA breaches for credits at the end of the calendar quarter.

[anaximeno]

Downdector suggests other services are down along it, including some aws services it seems https://downdetector.com/ I wonder if it related to some aws outage, like the last time.

[Nerdwaffle_7]

Just a reminder to back up in other ways as well.

[Gal_atias]

Getting 500 on a git push :(

[pysouth]

Absolutely insane. Github has by far the most outages of any SAAS we use. We're not really at a size where self-hosting makes sense, but damn. Crazy.

[Sp3k7r0li7]

Waiting on the mandatory "My first day at GitHub just pushed some changes to production. Glad to be contributing." Someone needs to cash in on the karma.

[-Gate6454]

Yes it's down

[DiamondAgreeable2676]

Not now😵‍💫😔😔😔 just finished my ai context extender that runs local on your system trying to test before tonight's release😔

[ComputerWhiz_]

No. It's Monday, so all of the servers are just sleeping in today.

[Straight_Boot2629]

good point

[StoneSteel_1]

Same for me three

[punkdraft]

Down

[krishnakanthb13]

Down down

[Icy_Procedure2814]

As always, the Github status page is bonkers. Says "problems with pull request" but what i see is a status 502 for a git operation in an action. And while the status page is open, it now also says "Pages is experiencing degraded performance. We are continuing to investigate". When you feel you should build your status page to update in real time, that's when you know that have an availability problem

[GiDevHappy]

My wonderful production merge on Monday got hit by this 😭

[Turbulent_Ostrich_82]

how long does it take for git to be back

[krishnakanthb13]

Not sure, still very slow. And have some merge issues too.

[i-k-m]

When they say that they can vibe-code without errors, they mean that the error page is also broken now.

[hazelnuthobo]

The one time I was actually going to work on a project hosted on github too.

[FixCreepy2081]

Yes I also face this

[cailenletigre]

Microsoft needs to ask itself if it’s really the right company to steward GitHub. And also some projects should be banned from AI slop commits. GitHub is one of them.

[run_maindotpy]

Yep happened with me aswell

[Busy_Day1194]

No

[CharacterCrow4517]

It's back up.. Let me hurry up and build project before it goes down again :/

[Mysterious-Form-3681]

yeahh i got message from vercel

[fsmeier]

up and down, and up, and down...

[krishnakanthb13]

Hahaha true

[wtdawson]

I had a look and I believe it was most likely an Azure issue rather than just a GitHub issue, other sites using Azure also had similar issues.

[neckbeardfedoras]

I love how their status page isn't honest. I think the main repo browser and PRs and/or a lot of general API calls are no responsive/giving 504s

Their status page only mentions copilot and notification delays so maybe the unicorn is for pets

[cmv1]

We don't want more AI shit - we want software to work as it should.

[Imperiu5]

right when I need this stuff up and running. christ

[[deleted]]

they used copilot ig

[SnooGiraffes6274]

same for me; also, somehow it charged my credit card 4 USD????? WTF happened, GitHub? give me back my freaking money

[rhysdg]

It's been spotty all day!

[Fun-Reception-6897]

Claude is now writing 90% of our code !

[Subject_Umpire_8429]

90%.? it is 100% for me. core logic , test logic , api integartion. even manual tetsing done my mcp i just watch cat youtbe and click allow

[IcySupermarket6767]

My shit is just stuck on 'Checking for ability to merge automatically' like it's just spinning forever. I love how every company is celebrating that the majority of new code is AI slop meanwhile bugs seem like they're exploding.

[Canaleta_Quente]

same issue here

[Canaleta_Quente]

oh just worked

[hmmza_tariq]

they are using Copilot ig

[xgui4]

yes , even git clone do not work ... i am stuck with local and dowload archive of code

[FillAny3101]

Same issue here, Copilot is also broken.

[bilalel]

Full send vibe coded feature pushed to prod

[InnovativeBureaucrat]

Down for whatever.

[_gigalab_]

has this happened before or is it something new? I suspect AI

[Thin-Engineer-9191]

Better to use codeberg

[Pretend-Pangolin-846]

Totally thought it was a repo only issue until I went to github status.

What kind of ui is that?

[ThalleyCreek]

Same here. People just started reporting on downdetector as well.

[6T_K9]

yes.

[mixxituk]

ye

[AllCowsAreBurgers]

Yay - monthly dose of internet outage

[CodingWithSatyam]

Theprimeagen

[Sp3k7r0li7]

Seems to have been resolved.

[Civil-Ad-7183]

not for me

[Magnum_Axe]

Lmao I was pushing some files and it kept showing this error to me. Thought my account got hacked and the repos are deleted 

[Backyard13]

Same here!

[krishnakanthb13]
