| 20%, do we just make numbers up? |

| It seems vastly higher on every region and VPN I've tested, so I think this is a case of the "technicalies". It is technically 20%, because a bunch of the requests that happen on page load do succeed. Just not the few crucial ones that are required for the page to load correctly - those return a 500 the vast supermajority of the time. |

It doesn't mean simply a greater share of.a majority | | |
| ▲ | zmgsabst 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | This is how language evolves. For supermajority: the construction means “beyond majority” or “above majority”, it is implemented as a higher percentage in most systems, and there is a utility in being able to refer to high ratio majority. So people have repurposed a technical word to a general word, of roughly the same meaning. | | |
