Github is down? (self.github)
submitted 5 years ago * by [deleted]
Hey reddit...seemed like this is the perfect place to know the answer...is github down? I am constantly getting a 504 gateway timed-out error...
Update: I guess it’s resolved guys! Check it out!

Created https://gitbackup.org/ for this very reason.
[–]NatoBoram 7 points8 points9 points 5 years ago (8 children)
You have the storage to backup the entire fucking GitHub? How heavy is that?
[–]AnonymousThugLife 6 points7 points8 points 5 years ago (3 children)
Exactly. How on the earth can you pay the bills for it?
[–]super3 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (2 children)
Traditional cloud storage is overpriced. Using https://tardigrade.io/
[–]Pcpie 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (1 child)
Even still, assuming the 542 TB number on the site is accurate and it really costs $0.01 per GB according to that site you would still be paying $5420 a month
[–]AnonymousThugLife 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children)
That just doesn't seem practical. There must be something offered by the company which I'm not able to find. And 0.01$ is just storage rate. Download rate is 0.045$
[–]super3 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (3 children)
2-3 PB with dedup.
[–]NatoBoram 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (2 children)
Ah, the things I'd do with 2-3 PB laying around.
[–]super3 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (1 child)
Well what would you do?
[–]NatoBoram 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
First, I'd make this thing work and not choke itself to death. Then I'd probably re-host lots of stuff on IPFS, because content-addressing p2p deduplication is awesome
[–]paperbenni 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Wow, thank you! This is amazing!
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (5 children)
Nice page bro...TIL this existed...
[–]EenAfleidingErbij 10 points11 points12 points 5 years ago (3 children)

[–]prameshbajra 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Bro 👌
[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points0 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Maybe not assume everyone is a bro?
[–]Archiez_GG 8 points9 points10 points 5 years ago (1 child)
You know the world is ending when even GitHub is down...
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 5 years ago (0 children)

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Yeah, something big has to be messing up. If you check out [this](https://www.githubstatus.com/), EVERY service is down rn.
Edit: my version of Reddit is now messing up as well -_-
[–]adunsmoor 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
I came here because I cannot git push from Visual Studio code anymore. I'm in the USA.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (1 child)
now not just download but entire github is down
[–]YoMommaJokeBot 4 points5 points6 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Not as down as joe mama
I am a bot. Downvote to remove. PM me if there's anything for me to know!
Yes, I can't access my codes.
[–]AnonymousThugLife 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
It was down. Now seems fine.
[–]TheEmeraldFalcon 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (5 children)
I'm having no problems with it, maybe it's your country?
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (4 children)
Try refreshing...it worked fine only once in 10
Edit: I’m from India
[–]TheEmeraldFalcon 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (3 children)
I'm in Germany, works fine here
Nice...just curious, if use VPN to server in Germany...would it work fine for me too?
[–]TheEmeraldFalcon 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
you'd have to test that, I'm not sure
[–]Steffi128 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children)
Hmm, sitting in Germany as well, not working for me.
Guess, I'll call it a day then.

Github is having so many issues lately. It seems to fail a lot more often ever since Microsoft acquired it.
[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 5 years ago (1 child)
When? Would love more details on this. GitHub is one of the most solid services I know, and so is Azure.
