The first place that I go when there is an outage is the status page of the service. Unfortunately, status pages are outdated and cannot be trusted to represent the status of the service.
Why? Why do companies choose to use Twitter over their own status page or at least not both?
GitHub Status page is 16 days behind https://status.github.com/messages
Slack Status page is saying 100% uptime for the last 30 days while they are having an outage https://status.slack.com/
