Frequently asked — GitHub

Is GitHub down right now?
Partially — GitHub is reachable but responding slowly from our datacenter. If it's also slow for you, it's likely a real performance dip on their side.
When was GitHub last down?
Our last recorded outage for GitHub was on Sep 14, 2026 at 15:15 UTC. That's the most recent failed probe we have in the rolling 14-day window. (Error: http_504.)
Why is GitHub slow or broken for me but working for others?
Three common causes. (1) Your ISP's DNS hasn't refreshed — try GitHub via /dns-propagation. (2) A CDN edge near you is degraded while other regions are fine. (3) Your firewall or VPN is mangling the connection. Run the /audit on the hostname and you'll see whether DNS, TLS, and HTTP all look healthy from our side.
How is this page different from GitHub's official status page?
GitHub's own status page is what their engineers say — accurate but often lagging real-world impact by 5–30 minutes. We probe their public endpoint every 5 minutes from outside their network and aggregate user reports, so we usually surface issues before the official page updates.
Where can I report GitHub being down?
Use the "Are you having problems?" form above. We don't store your IP — just a daily-salted hash that lets us rate-limit duplicates. Reports factor into the live count immediately.
How often do you check GitHub?
Every 5 minutes from our datacenter via an HTTP probe. You can also click Check now above to fire an immediate fresh probe (rate-limited to once per minute per IP).
