    GitHub is down?

  • GrahamDumpleton Graham Dumpleton (@GrahamDumpleton) reported

    @OliverLibutzki In time that have been waiting for GitHub to fix issues, person reporting issue had managed to solve the problem but had managed to post comment and close issue where I couldn’t even comment. So guess I can’t complain that couldn’t post my comment.

  • mattmecham Matt Mecham (@mattmecham) reported

    @iWozik @SubstackInc Github is down and I'm meant to be making a new release.

    Devs will only rest when GitHub is down. Outage Driven Development >>>>

  • coreh Marco Buono (@coreh) reported

    @MylesBorins @github - A feature you relied on was removed - This update breaks the build - Support for an old architecture is being removed - Performance regressed All of these are of course better served by actual comments, issues and PRs, but it's useful to be able to gauge the general sentiment

  • stevebennett Steve Bennett 💙💉 (@stevebennett) reported

    What's worse - when GitHub is down or when Slack is down?

  • rodellwarner Rodell Warner (@rodellwarner) reported

    @Nicolas_Sassoon @hicetnunc2000 It’s a bug that causing all kinds of errors with collections. My collection is currently displaying every NFT it’s ever held except for ones I’ve collected since yesterday. Others are reporting unordered & missing OBJKTs. I contributed to bug report on github. Hope resolved soon

  • has_many_books Emma Barnes (@has_many_books) reported

    @t_pk @github their status bot thing says there are problems at the moment, yeah

  • ThinkingETH elizab.eth (@ThinkingETH) reported

    Seems like GitHub is having issues atm

  • kai_malcolm Kai Malcolm (@kai_malcolm) reported

    When you realize that @github uses GitHub to build GitHub so they have to somehow create and deploy a fix without CI or PRs or *** 😬

  • breadadams Brad Adams (@breadadams) reported

    @githubstatus We seem to have merged a PR just as the outage started, the code is merged to master correctly however the PR was not closed (nor any indication of it being merged added to the PR). Is there any chance this will automatically fix itself? @GitHubHelp @github

  • creationix Tim Caswell (@creationix) reported

    @dotstdy Yes, I've been wanting to build this for years! The MS thing is great, but it's windows only. It's not even that hard with libraries like fuse, I could prototype a custom server and client in a day. But my fear is nobody will care. Github will never deploy my custom protocol.

  • adrhrs Adrian Afnandika (@adrhrs) reported

    service down disaat github down 🙃

  • okonetchnikov Andrey Okonetchnikov (@okonetchnikov) reported

    @iamsapegin @github I bet they are solving resources problem for themselves.

  • krnblni Karan Balani (@krnblni) reported

    @aamod_krishna @github GitHub was down.

  • dirkjaeckel Dirk Jäckel 😷💉 (@dirkjaeckel) reported

    @SalvatoreCfp @LefterisJP @github That sounds like a serious bug in ***. No problem with GitHub should be able to corrupt local *** repo.

  • malcontentkiwi MALContentKiwi (@malcontentkiwi) reported

    Hi @github I got locked out of my account thanks to your system failure. In order to get in touch with you via my account I have to login - which I can't. Please help. I am now stopped from working.

  • coreh Marco Buono (@coreh) reported

    @MylesBorins @github I understand the issue of trolling and harassment of Open Source maintainers, but if you can only react positively it sort of takes away part of the point of the feature. Reacting with 👎 for a release makes no sense but 😕 makes sense in a lot of contexts

  • BelloneDavide Davide Bellone 🐧 - 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲𝟰𝗶𝘁.𝗱𝗲𝘃 📃📃 (@BelloneDavide) reported

    @Baum_dev Looks interesting! Is there any deeper explanation? I can't find it in the github issue

  • AvidDabbler Walter Jenkins 💻🧭🚎 (@AvidDabbler) reported

    @openmobilityorg @MobilityDataIO The GitHub login is broken on the openmobility data site. Takes you to a 404 on github.

  • yashimwong90 Yashim Wong (@yashimwong90) reported

    Man github is down

  • TkDodo Dominik (@TkDodo) reported

    @EddyVinckk @github slightly biased because I contribute to both: - react-query for server state - zustand for client-state

  • pdevito3 Paul DeVito (@pdevito3) reported from Johns Creek, Georgia

    @TkDodo @EddyVinckk @github Ever find yourself reaching for xstate as well? I have some pretty complex front end stuff to get to in a month or so and thinking I’m going to have to go down that hole.

  • _solnic_ ⚡️🤘🏻Piotr Solnica🤘🏻⚡️ (@_solnic_) reported

    My problem with examples in READMEs is that they get outdated/broken etc. I want them to be testable and part of the CI build process. Yes, you heard me. I'm building functionality to enable stuff like that via my GitHub app (2/4)
