Not one, but three outages in a row [0], if you went 'all in' on GitHub (Including GitHub Actions). Even under 'scheduled maintenance' something else unexpectedly goes down.

From [0]:

>> Until the next time GitHub goes down again (hopefully that won't be in another month's time).

>> That says it all really. Lets reset the counter and try this again.

Going to reset the counter once again. Hopefully GitHub won't have another outage in a week's (or even a months) time.

It turns out that my whole comment chain in [0] was right in the 'long term' of not 'centralizing everything' [1] on GitHub since 2020.
