So far my work on GitHub wasn't affected to an extent I'd even notice much. Especially with Boost we are not that highly active that even a day outage would be catastrophic. I'd put it as "mildly annoying" instead.
The scary part is that some of the recent issues on GitHub were not the downtime but data corruption that could go unnoticed. Specifically, I'm referring to the recent issue with PR merges that removed commits from the target branches. https://github.blog/news-insights/company-news/an-update-on-github-availabil... That is, you could have merged a PR on the web UI, it would succeed and silently remove commits on your target branch. You wouldn't know until you checked git history.
