it's about GitHub's issues in general, including outages. every section gets somewhat equal amount of attention
Of course not. It's trendy and a great way to virtue signal right now. GitHub is the target of the latest "go woke, go broke" "decentralization!" cycle. Their recent issues dealing with 30x load just made them a highly visible target.
Just skimming the comments on the internet and you see the same flavor of dumb, false narratives like "everyone is leaving GitHub" "too bad GitHub is in decline".
Meanwhile the vast, vast majority of people using GitHub for "getting shit done", while maybe impacted and unhappy with the outages, are not clamoring to move to Web3.0 forge-bro tech.
I think a lot of people within the US don't realize how badly US is seen from the outside, especially from "allies".
Illegal tariffs, threatening tariffs, NATO sabotage, threatening invasion, abandoning Ukraine, supporting Russia. It's not just one guy doing this, he has a whole party behind him that could reel him in any second.
