GitHub Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • drdredel Yevgeny Simkin (@drdredel) reported

    @CriticalCricket @BillKristol @RadioFreeTom I repeat - NOT every single system has this problem. The ones designed to either exacerbate or ignore it, suffer from it. StackOverflow, Github, and Wikipedia are immune to it. Why? Because there is personal accountability and people don't want to be seen as jerks or looneys.

  • nodekscode Kayla Smart #blackintech . (@nodekscode) reported

    I spent 5+ minutes trying '*** commit origin main' - I thought github went down too, but I was the error

  • annes2739 history has its eyes on u (@annes2739) reported

    @FordJohnathan5 I have. Everyone forgets a Friday outage about 4 years ago. Twitter and Netflix were down. So was github, which was why we all sat around at work doing nothing. github is wher source code for just about everything is stored.

  • pandathecoder ruby 🐼 (@pandathecoder) reported

    the downtime outage i care about is github and stack overflow and you already guessed who i am 😎

  • notelbanna francois ben-amor 🌻🇵🇸 (@notelbanna) reported

  • AskJere Jeremy (@AskJere) reported

    Would you imagine GitHub goes down as well...

  • mlieberman85 Michael Lieberman (@mlieberman85) reported

    The sheer amount of times I'm searching something and come across @copumpkin's name in a Github issue from years ago or similar is ridiculous.

  • ibnKhalid_ Ibrahim (@ibnKhalid_) reported

    If @AWS @github or @Jira went down, would we get a day off from work 🤔

  • armrods Ærmando (@armrods) reported

    @ArtemR @Windows There's a new one patched for W11 but it's not working in latest dev weird TrafficMonitor on GitHub /zhongyang219/TrafficMonitor

  • sprucekhalifa Spruce | Developer (@sprucekhalifa) reported

    Ever wondered what would happen if GitHub went down #100DaysOfCode

  • harmony_coin Harmony One Coin 💙 (@harmony_coin) reported

    Harmony $ONE has been on a slow steady increase since the end September. With the correct completions on GitHub $ONE could shoot past an ATH fast. Careful with swings this month. IF it breaks it will be fast and up.

  • realjasonsiders Jason Siders (@realjasonsiders) reported

    @MC_of_A Oh **** I didn’t realize GitHub is also down

  • a_gazelessstare sarAhhAhh🌼 (@a_gazelessstare) reported

    Why does Skype want me to sign in with my github account, sir I just want to talk with my grandma

  • JuniorrFds Satoru Junior (@JuniorrFds) reported

    Facebook is down. Instagram is down. WhatsApp is down. Twitter is half down. Best time to start your web development journey Follow - HTML - CSS - JavaScript - React - Build projects - Push on GitHub - Get a Job - Help others - Share your journey on Twitter.

  • camjpatrick Cameron Patrick (@camjpatrick) reported

    @SolomonKurz @IsabellaGhement (more generally I'm feeling increasingly uncomfortable about the centralisation of the internet. the original premise of *** was to be able ot independent of centralised servers, but GitHub has become the biggest centralised revision control system server ever!)

  • djhocking Daniel Hocking (@djhocking) reported

    I don’t get the problem that slack solves. So now slack, email, Google drive, GitHub issues, JIRA tickets, GChat, one note, etc. not sure slack will streamline my workflow or keep things more organized. What am I missing? Has slack improved things for you?

  • taco_x86 taco (@taco_x86) reported

    @KnightsWhoNISA Oh, a serious one: have you tried @hooliganhymnal or @guardbook, and/or seen the GitHub page for the platform ? As big tech gets worse and after Facebook suffered its mega-outage, this is an area where NISA SGs have collaborated to beat everyone in US Soccer. IMO. I am biased.

  • mynameissalah Salah 🇵🇸🇭🇹🇪🇹🇪🇷 (@mynameissalah) reported

    Slack and GitHub going down would be tragic. Just tragic. Especially with this embarrassing image bug I merged. 🥲

  • joranelias joranelias (@joranelias) reported

    If we really wanted to get serious we'd need StackOverflow and GitHub to get in on the action and go down too.

  • drmzio Daniel Ramirez (@drmzio) reported

    Will use #Nextjs for the frontend and #React for the widget itself. It should load the component in a container placed on any site. #buildinpublic For the backend, I'll use a @supabase database + authentication (probably GitHub login) for registration.

  • gittumia Sarim Khan (@gittumia) reported

    @usyweb @gittower Yeah its janky AF. Mounted drive in windows doesn't get linux file permissions and io is slow. I've been using github-desktop app inside wsl2.

  • rickmanelius rickmanelius.eth (@rickmanelius) reported

    It's kinda amazing how you can login to @github anytime of the day (or night) and see people across the world committing to open source.

  • awakecoding Marc-André Moreau (@awakecoding) reported

    @unixterminal While migrating to GitHub Actions I simply stopped using Windows containers for my builds, because I now had a fresh VM for each build with all build tools pre-installed. However, I was expecting Docker to work on Windows Server with process-level isolation. It works on Linux

  • _be3ocoder Ahmed Elbayaa 🍋🇪🇬 (@_be3ocoder) reported

    GitHub is down also ?

  • bigfack 白左thirst-worldist🏴🔰 (@bigfack) reported

    @hdevalence I'm slogging through stuff tagged "good first issue" on GitHub because of hacktoberfest, and oreboot actually had something relating to DevOps I thought I could contribute to.

    @ceceteras02 GitHub has been down before. Google going down would be a catastrophe. Or AWS

  • simonmicheal simonsmith (@simonmicheal) reported

    @nierop_pieter Is this a scam, had a quick look over the github site and looks terrible no code, whitepaper does not say much either, and cant find any of the team. I wont be investing
