@aburka @ironicbadger ah I was replying to a different post about it being Azure or Azure management. I did Mastodon wrong, sorry.
I will say after the acquisition when GitHub became rapidly more complex as features were added, the definition of downtime requiring a status change became a lot more strict and focused (for some teams). A bit more loose and easy beforehand.
@andymckay @ironicbadger yeah I can believe there are many causes, mismanagement and forced development speed as much as technology changes

@ironicbadger Could anyone explain to me, how is this possible?
I would imagine they would keep things running on the original hardware etc. which I wouldn't expect to fluctuate like this. -
@Tubsta @ironicbadger iirc they were like halfway through rolling it out when Microsoft bought them lmao

@ironicbadger @isotopp what’s the data source behind it? Official status page? Because that has been notoriously inaccurate long before microslop took over.

@ironicbadger interested if you can map that to growth/shrinkage in users and/or volume or data being used.

@ironicbadger wait, they went from 100% uptime on their own servers,which were constantly on, to 99,5% as lowest uptime on a scalable infrastructure? That's 3,5 hours max spread over a month. And you're taking the piss on them for that? That's wild. Maybe focus on their link to Israel in the Gaza war or something.

I would imagine they would keep things running on the original hardware etc. which I wouldn't expect to fluctuate like this.@Jourei AFAIK they started to use Azure more and more. That would explain the initial stability after the buy event. Also they might have shifted from stability to ship feature after feature. Before Microsoft bought them, their feature set was rather stable.

@Tubsta Yep still 0% uptime from my IPv6 only server point of view.

If anything services fee can be paid back into MSFT pipelines instead of other service providers, they wanted it yesterday. They brought in more than 1000 people, which was more than all of GitHub at the time, to dilute the original teams.

@ironicbadger Microsoft has always had a peculiar reverse Mida's touch, transforming into junk everything they touch - remember Zune, Windows Phone, etc.

They fired huge chunks of the existing staff and terrified the rest.
