GitHub no longer publishes aggregate numbers so here they are parsed out. It looks like they are down to a single 9 at this point across all services:

Nice! I still remember the old GitHub status page which showed and reported on their uptime. No surprises they took it offline and replaced it with the current one when it started reporting the truth.

EDIT: You mention this with archive.org links! Love it! https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/#about

That's not at all how you measure uptime. The per area measures are cool but the top bar measuring across all services is silly.

I'm unsure what they are targeting, seems across the board it's mostly 99.5+ with the exception of Copilot. Just doing math, 3 (independent, which I'm aware they aren't fully) 99.5 services brings you down to an overall "single 9" 98.5 healthy status but it's not meaningful to anyone.

It's interesting to see that copilot has the worst overall. I use copilot completions constantly and rarely notice issues with it. I suspect incidents aren't added until after they resolve.

Do I misunderstand or does your page count today's downtime as minor? I would not count the web UI being mostly unusable as minor. Does this mean GitHub understates how bad incidents are? Pr has your page just not yet been updated to include it?
