Apparently they deleted the Github Actions account as it shows up as ghost in PR comments.

if that's the case, such a thing is so absurd that it goes around and it becomes almost hilarious

I think Anthropic should buy Github after buying bun and everything in between.

If you don't want to self-host Gitea/Forgejo, I recommend SourceHut for private repos and Codeberg for public ones. Happy to answer any questions you might have for either based on my experience!

For private repos I just have a folder on my NAS that I run `mkdir <repo name> && git -C <repo name> init --bare` in. Works great.

What's wrong with codeberg for private repos?

I'm more than happy with https://codefloe.com for private repos. The service is blazing fast and the maintainer does a great job keeping it up-to-date with recent Forgejo releases.

They only allow private repos as an exception, and only insofar as they're ancillary to open source projects.
From their FAQs[0]:
> Codeberg's mission is to promote free/libre software. Keeping software private is obviously not our primary use case, but we acknowledge that private repositories are useful or necessary at times.

Other post: GitHub Actions down again today [0]
Technically this one was earlier but the other one has more traction.

Over the last 90 days the status page (https://www.githubstatus.com/) shows around 2 nines of uptime for most services.

"We need an SCM with five nines of availability. What about GitHub?"
"Well. It's got a nine in it"
"What's the availability??"
"Nine percent"

The Missing GitHub Status Page (https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/) gives a better overview of their frequent outages.

I commented on the other post, but GHA's awful reliability, ergonomics and performance have caused me to quit my job and work on https://harmont.dev.

Anyone else notice that the first/near top comment on every HackerNews post lately is someone saying something along the lines of
"I had X problem so I went and started working on Y solution if you want to give it a look?"
I don't want to delve into it any further - but something about it seems incongruous. It's not spam it's submarine marketing.
