alt Hacker NewsI mean, as far as counter arguments go, github had plenty of downtime before LLMs, and they didn't deal with exponential growth then. If you don't count the "it gets harder" side but only counts the "they had problems" side, then yea, that might look bad, but that's not very honest imo.
Not looking up the outage stats for Github (not sure how accurate they are historically). But going off by what I notice on HN the past months / year, it definitely seems like GH is experiencing more downtown than pre-2022.
But maybe I'm misremembering how fragile GH was in the 2010s.
