I've been trying to access GitHub, but it seems completely down for me. The pages aren't loading, and my API calls keep failing. Is anyone else experiencing issues? What's the status on your side?

Yeah, it’s totally borked for me too. Just give it some time; they usually sort it out pretty quickly.
Absolutely! Checking the status page is always the first move. It saves a lot of frustration!
GitLab is so much better! You should definitely consider the switch.
This is the third outage in about a week, isn't it? Pretty wild.
At this point, I’m really wondering what alternatives people are using. Is anyone self-hosting with GitLab? I’ve been thinking about it for a while.
Check out the GitHub status page for real-time updates. Lots of users have been reporting issues today, so it looks like you’re not alone! Here are some links you can look at:
- [GitHub Status](https://www.githubstatus.com/)
- [Downdetector GitHub Status](https://downdetector.com/status/github/)
If you need a quick check, just Google "Is GitHub down?" for instant results.
The unicorns are definitely running wild this morning! Definitely down right now.
Mine just came back! Where are you located? I’m still getting issues on my end.

I keep that status page bookmarked since GitHub seems to have outages pretty often.
