alt Hacker NewsI'm not a GitHub apologist, but that graph isn't at scale, at all. It's massively zoomed in, with a lower band of 99.5%. It makes it look far worse than it is.

It's an uptime chart and shouldn't need to show much more than the 99% range.
If you started the y-axis at zero, you wouldn't see much of anything. Logarithmic scale would still be a bit much imo.

It also has 0 reflection of load. Weren't you limited to a single private repo before Microsoft took over?

If you plotted it from zero, then a horrible service and a great service would be indistinguishable. Their SLA for enterprise customers is 99.9%. The low end of that chart is 5x that amount downtime. It is a reasonable scale for the range people are concerned about and it looks bad because it is bad.
