GitHub Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Nav Toor (@heynavtoor) reportedIn 2015, the Chinese police visited a programmer's home. They told him to stop working on his code. They told him to delete it from GitHub. He posted one final message before he obeyed: "Two days ago the police came to me and wanted me to stop working on this. Today they asked me to delete all the code from GitHub. I have no choice but to obey. I hope one day I'll live in a country where I have freedom to write any code I like without fearing." Then he deleted the repo. Then he deleted the message. Then something happened the Chinese government did not plan for. Within hours, the code was mirrored to thousands of other GitHub accounts. Within days, it became the #1 trending repository on GitHub globally. Within weeks, every Chinese developer who could compile code had a copy. The government tried to make it disappear. The act of trying made it permanent. The project is called Shadowsocks. The programmer's username was clowwindy. He built a tiny piece of software that let anyone in China bypass the Great Firewall and reach the open internet. No subscription. No company. No account. You set up a server somewhere outside China. You connect to it. Your traffic looks like normal encrypted web browsing, so the firewall cannot tell you are using it. Why this terrified the Chinese government in 2015: → It was open source. Anyone could compile it. → It was small. The whole protocol fit in a few hundred lines of code. → It looked like normal HTTPS traffic. The Great Firewall could not distinguish it. → It required no money. No accounts. No central server to seize. → It worked on every operating system. You cannot arrest a protocol. You can only arrest the person who wrote it. So they did. And the protocol kept spreading. shadowsocks-windows: 59,300+ stars. GPLv3. Still online 11 years later. The 2015 commits the Chinese government wanted deleted are still in the history. clowwindy was forced to walk away. The code never did. But DO NOT install it. The Great Firewall has feelings too. 100% Open Source. (Link in the comments)

Yann Masoch (@yannmasoch) reported@GergelyOrosz Last month was terrible, and the Reddit community fired up. Now it's GitHub Copilot's turn with their new token-based policy coming on June 1st.

正神智す〜 🇺🇸 (@YukimiKazari) reported@ShitpostRock2 he is right, the lazyness and overuse of github is a major problem that will show its ugly head as soon as something goes wrong with github. on top of the assumption that everyone just understands how interact with github and its unintuitive release system

PolicyLayer (@PolicyLayer) reportedThe base rate is the smaller story. A 5-server MCP install — Stripe, Linear, Postgres, Slack, GitHub — exposes a tool that wipes data or runs shell commands with 92% probability. At ten servers it's 99.4%. Multi-server MCP exposure is not a tail risk. It is the default outcome of using MCP as designed.

Mac Lane’s Strongest Soldier (@1969itS) reported@planefag This isn’t a github issue this is a maintainer issue
-
wordgrammer (@wordgrammer) reported@teortaxesTex You sure it’s not a GitHub error? They’re not doing hot as of late
-
Santhosh (@brsanthu) reported@johncrickett I think issue with Github issue sudden surge of data ingress which wasn't planned/designed for agentic era. Nonetheless they are trying and scaling. Please give them some time.

Spykeō (スパイケオ) (@Spyk3O) reported@planefag GitHub does objectively have terrible UI
-
MeFinity (@mefinity) reportedProject maintainers should host their binaries on their own server or atleast link to a direct download (/releases/download/ver/file.exe) to prevent whiny ******* like these who cant find the Releases/Actions tab when given a github url
-
Josh (@joshmanders) reported@juemrami @johncrickett GitHub was very much architected to handle this scale. The problem is Microsoft is putting their resources into trying to be THE AI company, so GitHub is slipping. Very evident in the fact that they haven't found a new CEO for GitHub and don't show any signs to be trying to. A ship with no captain will succumb to the seas violent ways.
-
Darrell (@darrellprograms) reported@xatzimi1 @ShitpostRock2 The mistake was made in the other direction: Github is not forbidding enough to people who aren't interested in the source code. A big green download button would further attract malware and other pollution, something that's already a problem because of end-user links in README.

Justin (@AetherCoding) reported@sudoingX The Github Copilot Pro Plus runs will be sorely missed. Have been full timing fine tuning my Hermes setup since. Context and project level focus and are often more important than bench scores. It's a constant dance as you know but have enjoyed the challenge of maxing out a Ryzen 9 6900x w AMD 680m 32 GB GPU LPDDR5. The idea is to have a backpackable, low power consumption agent that can run off of external batteries on low power settings. I have the 3.6 27b q4 KXL running really well offline but i often use my swarming/QMD 3.5 9b often too, does really well. GTT opened up the rest of my GPU for LLM inference recently so it opened the door the the XL Q4. I run the q4 as oracle when my 9b agents (Trinity and Morpheus) need assistance. They do a automatized handoff of ports so that the models dont run at same time and leave GPU optimal. The handoff lets them call up Oracle at will and then Oracle passes back to them and shuts herself down after she updates the passdown with her conclusions. This system lets me run everything offline on my mini pc, no external gpu.

jay gupta (@jayssj1) reported@threepointone Despite GitHub being down and reliability to 90% people have not moved to gitlab. It does say something
-
Nermal (@nirmalpatel_) reported@JonathanRoss321 yeah right LLM says Yes to every terrible architecture move, and the dumass prompters keep saying yes for every terrible decision, making the codebase into a slopfest, welcome to github being down for a week
