Common reasons GitHub looks down when it isn't

What to check before blaming GitHub

  1. Check githubstatus.com — GitHub reports status per component (Git, Actions, API, Pages).
  2. Compare the web UI vs. git over SSH/HTTPS to see which component fails.
  3. Re-authenticate (token or SSH key) if only pushes and pulls fail.
  4. Switch networks to rule out your connection or a corporate proxy.

GitHub status — frequently asked

Is GitHub down right now?

GitHub is up and responding in 44 ms. That reading is from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, 3 minutes ago.

Is it GitHub that's down, or is it my internet connection?

It can be either — that's the hard part. The status on this page is measured from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, so GitHub can look healthy here while your own connection is the real problem. The itsnotyou test checks both at once and returns a single verdict in about 10 seconds.

Why is GitHub loading slowly?

A slow GitHub usually comes down to one of two things: GitHub's own servers are responding slowly — itsnotyou measures time to first byte, and anything over 1500 ms is flagged as slow — or your local connection is the bottleneck. Running the test tells the two apart.

How often is GitHub's status checked?

GitHub is probed every few minutes, around the clock, from itsnotyou's monitoring servers. The verdict and the 24-hour response-time history on this page update automatically.
