alt Hacker NewsStatus page currently says the only issue is notification delays, but I have been getting a lot of Unicorn pages while trying to access PRs.
Edit: Looks like they've got a status page up now for PRs, separate from the earlier notifications one: https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/smf24rvl67v9
Edit: Now acknowledging issues across GitHub as a whole, not just PRs.

I cannot approve PRs because the JSON API is returning HTML error pages. Something is really hosed over there.

Yeah I've been seeing a lot of 500 errors myself, latency seems to have spiked too: https://github.onlineornot.com/

git operations are down too.
They added the following entry:
Investigating - We are investigating reports of impacted performance for some GitHub services. Feb 09, 2026 - 15:54 UTC
But I saw it appear just a few minutes ago, it wasn't there at 16:10 UTC.
