I am disappointed. A few servers have been moved via train and stayed online. Codeberg should do better.

Migrations should always incur downtime

"Hey we're migrating, take a break for a week"

Lol, awesome.

Annoyingly I noticed that the status page only shows the past 22 minutes to 1 hour for the primary services. I have no idea why, and there doesn't seem to be a way to look further back. But the badge says 99.45% uptime over the last 14 days, so that's probably right.

They also have an history of incidents further down and as you can see they are very short, heck many aren't even incidents since they were on purpose for mantaince and features deployment

To be fair MS makes orders of magnitude more money and has the benefit of operations at scale. Whereas codeberg's operational budget for 2025 was 100k euro and they still need to deal with DDoS and bot scraping. They also were running off a single server up until sept'25 when they had two donated hardware services which are now hooked up to make a 3 node ceph cluster.

more users means, they should do much better than the ones with less users (assuming each user is worth the same/requires same infra).

at the worst case, a bigger org could just copy paste a smaller orgs system a couple times to get the exact same uptime, with same budget per user*. The benefit of bigger orgs is, that they can consolidate these separate system a big system that is more stable AND costs less. If this wasn't true, we wouldn't have big orgs in the first place**.

* yes, it is NOT the same budget for the users. You can't JUST copy paste the system, you'd also need to think how you split it up. I know there are a million little things to nitpick here, but this can all be solved somewhat easily, and they wont change the overall argument.

** regulatory capture, lobbying, corruption and creating a monopoly could also be consider aspects of "consolidating into a bigger system". This doesn't mean why MS shouldn't be able to be better, it just explains why they aren't better.

You mean sourceforge?

I once tried to ask my phone to set an alarm. It said it did.

I checked the app. No alarm set.

I tried again, but with a timer. It said it was set.

Again, nothing.

I gave up on digital assistants after that. They took them out back and shot them, and what we see now is their rotted corpse puppeted by Shareholder Value™️ gone wrong. This was 2022.

Oh my god, i'm not the only one!! Thank you for confirming i'm not incapable of using android auto. Such a stupid fucking bug

I think that's how a lot of the internet is dying right now because buying an IP then wringing every drop of value out of its dying corpse before dropping it is a good way to make money right now. This is very much a thing that happens outside of the internet too, and happened long before the internet existed. I think one of the cool things about the internet is how quickly word can spread about this kind of compromised company / product / whatever thing, though I think we need to get better at it. I'm not exactly sure how to accomplish that, it seems like an overwhelming problem, but I think about it a lot.

99.99%

TBF, no, established companies tend to have something between 99.9% and 99.99% of uptime. It only increases if the company is explicitly focused on it, at a large cost that usually needs to be paid by some customer.

But Github pretends to be one of those companies that focus on uptime. And it's also less than 99% right now. So yeah, the main point stands.

Thanks. I was thinking it was something biological, or some sort of light spectrum and was getting confused.

I actually manage servers and network services, and am familiar with the importance of five nines uptime. It seems like this kind of an interface is a failure in that it provides quick information to most people but doesn't include information for people with disabilities. I think it would be beneficial to have that visual interface with color information but to also include information that showed bars of different heights and widths.

I understand that the direct inclusion of all of the numbers could clutter the interface and make it less easy to immediately tell uptime, but even without the numbers it seems that significant improvements could be made to the way this information is presented with this layout.

LMAO 1 nine of reliability.
