Fully agree. I've been super impressed with the number of new features since the MS acquisition, but the number of outages is getting abysmal. At the very least I think GitHub would attempt to shard their infrastructure and repositories - right now it seems like when GitHub goes down it nearly always goes down for everyone simultaneously.

This kind of GH outage is actually pretty rare in my experience in that basically every kind of write operation looks down.: basic git operations from the command line, actions, logins, etc.

I think it is quite individual. I am not impressed by any of the newer features. The UI become more cumbersome to use. I sometimes need to search for things now, while I don't see any new advantages compared to before.

The new search? You can't even use search on source code without being first authenticated, which requires signing up for an account.
