I've been seeing a lot of hackernews articles in the last 2 weeks talking about how people have issues with GitHub being down, Actions causing issues, people leaving GitHub, and even some building a website to show the outages as contributions.

As a European user I've rarely had any issues with GitHub. I've been on GitHub for ~7 years now, and honestly, I can't recall the last time I had issues with it. I may have seen the site being down for like 3/4 times, and I cannot recall ever having issues with GitHub Actions, or any other product of GitHub.

So my question, especially to the European users out here, how much trouble do you actually have with GitHub? I wanna know if people here are vastly exaggerating the outages, or whether this just seems to be affecting US people.

Almost no issues. I don't use Github CI though.
