The hard truth is yes. I have been saying it since the start of it all, Last time it happened was just 20 days ago. [0]

Going all in on something without a backup plan sounds like a dangerous decision to do for critical deployments or serious bug fixes that must be pushed immediately.

I really wouldn't want to totally lose control by going all in on GitHub Actions and have no backup or secondary measure whatsoever to urgently fix such serious issues. Instead you have to wait for GitHub to go back online or worse contact the CEO of GitHub to sort it out.

Again. No thanks and most certainly no deal.
