No they aren't, we can see outages coming 20+ minutes before GH reports them.

We have outages on our books that they never reported even after we ticketed them.

They cook the stats like an inner city police department.

Me and a colleague were just ranting about how there's no way in hell Actions has 99.6% uptime but yet that's what their status page says. Maybe it's just bias and I am only remembering the minutes that it's down what feels like every week or multiple times a week. But I'm suspicious of their stats, even if they declare an incident on the status page.

I would suggest every enterprise customer that is not keeping track of github downtime and it's effect on their systems and workforce independently for presentation to their sales team every billing cycle for discounts is leaving a lot of money on the table.
