Why doesn't https://www.githubstatus.com reflect this accurately?
I usually check this and then doubt my network might be at fault if they don't show outages.

This is indeed correct.

Now https://www.githubstatus.com/ is declaring an incident but your page doesn’t have it
Maybe I spoke too soon in labelling your page “more accurate”?

It is only being updated once per day. In an ongoing incident it is indeed not necessarily more accurate.

It might be good to put a disclaimer to that effect at the top of the page, to avoid confusion.

Yes githubstatus shows all OK for Europe, where I am, but when trying to open the Web page of a repository I receive:
503 Service Unavailable
No server is available to handle this request.[–] bheztio 11 hours ago
They updated the status page now, it says they are "investigating degraded performance". Like, their web is 100 % down. But no, have to call it "degraded performance for some users, some services" etc.

Same here. What's the point of a status page at this stage? "Copilot Ali"?

It never does.
GitHub has outages all the time without that page showing anything.
Another comment pointed to a third party alternative which is more accurate – https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/ – but that alternative isn't showing an outage right now either, since I believe it is being fed by GitHub.com's incident data.
