This tweet by the GitHub COO is *bananas*

The most egregious failure modes we have been seeing these past weeks are cannot be attributed to "growing pains".

This is not PR anymore. It's just gaslighting.

tweet by Kyle Daigle: Yup, platform activity is surging. There were 1 billion commits in 2025. Now, it's 275 million per week, on pace for 14 billion this year if growth remains linear (spoiler: it won't.) GitHub Actions has grown from 500M minutes/week in 2023 to 1B minutes/week in 2025, and now 2.1B minutes so far this week. So we're pushing incredibly hard on more CPUs, scaling services, and strengthening GitHub’s core features. And as a fine purveyor of hand-crafted shit code for many years, I'm not gonna weigh in on that. 🤣
