Comment on Status: Investigating reports of connectivity issues

Comments

This is the second major outage of GH this summer. I'm fearing we should all become less dependent on this single service for bug reporting, merging, etc. and instead leverage the decentralized power of Git to host on a variety of platforms. That way if one is out, you just fall back to another.

Does anyone know of libraries that can sync at least the filed issues between GitHub and GitLab or Bitbucket in near real time? That's the main thing from GitHub that I'm truly missing when there's an outage.

Is this a major outage? They've been experiencing connectivity issues for ~20 mins. I've been able to connect just fine all the while, as well.

GitHub isn't 'down.'
