GitHub Has an Availability Problem. Is It Time to Look Elsewhere?

long past time. what’s taking people so long

what’s taking people so long

besides the fact that there’s no decent alternative for workloads of a certain size/scale?

What is missing from GitLab?

A platform that is down for almost a whole day every month does not seem like a decent alternative for those workloads

If you have to ask the question, you haven’t made a serious comparison of the two.

No, I have just migrated my company to self-hosted GL and found a better experience with literally no downsides.

I think it is a fair question, because I really don’t see what could be the deal-breaker. Is it copilot, or the terrible GitHub actions?

You don’t see the deal breaker because your requirements are clearly low enough that open-core software works for your use case. Your experience is not universal. Your inexperience is leading you to believe you’re more knowledgeable than you really are. I don’t need to explain myself to someone that engages in bad faith arguments.

Let me guess, you chose Gitlab because you’re a DHH fanboy?

Not the person, but get off your high horse, and either explain what you mean, or shut up.

Thats a lot of words to say nothing of value.
