Incident with Pull Requests, Issues, Git Operations and API Requests

GitHub says it is investigating problems affecting some of its most important features: code uploads and downloads, issue tracking, pull requests, and its request system that many apps rely on behind the scenes. In plain English: the website where huge chunks of the software world work had a rough moment, and the crowd reaction was less “stay strong” and more “here we go again.”

The comments read like a live audience at a reality show reunion. One person groaned, “GitHub Incident again,” which pretty much set the tone. Another went full conspiracy-comedy and asked whether GitHub was secretly running paid ads for GitLab, a rival platform, because these outages are becoming such great publicity for the competition. That joke landed because the real mood underneath it was frustration: people weren’t just annoyed about one bad day, they were mad about what they see as a bad streak.

The sharpest criticism came from users saying they’re simply exhausted. One commenter declared, “I’m so done with GitHub,” while another posted the gloriously savage link isgithubcooked.com and said it had been “an impressively bad month.” Even the usual defenders seemed to be running out of energy. The final vibe? Less panic, more fed-up disbelief. When a platform this central to developers wobbles, people notice fast—and apparently turn instantly into stand-up comics with receipts.
