> I'm not sure I would agree that the core reason in this case is "the acquisition"
Would data change your mind?
Wasn’t that page debunked already?
That is quite stark.
Whats the deal with the colors? Red and yellow don’t strictly seem to mean higher/lower. Some yellow dots are lower than red.
Playing devil's advocate: from the graph alone, it could just be that the status page became more accurate, so same amount of down time, but reported more now.
On the other hand, I don't remember things being this bad before the acquisition.
