The latest problems correlate pretty closely when they tried to migrate the entire platform onto azure in an insane timeline, something like ~1 year (for a project of that size, that's borderline insane).

Yes, but also in combination with the not-borderline-and-actually insane growth in commits and load on the platform due to AI.

this is often the argument that is trotted out, but i don't see any evidece of that.

It has been reported new user volume has nearly doubled, and commit volume 10x+ - that could certainly have an impact, but "Azure" and "scale" in my career are words that have never really gone together. Azure Cloud is the only 'hard no, will not interview' of any cloud provider that's listed on a job posting, and I've worked with just about all of them by now I think. Nothing even comes close to such a miserable experience.

The thought of migrating something at the scale of github to azure gives me the cold sweats.
