    yeah, but it’s microsoft. what’s the longest you’ve gone without rebooting windows? a couple days? It stands to reason.

      Man when was the last time you used Windows? The regular restart criticism hilariously outdated

      My work computer has mandatory updates from IT like every 2 weeks but when I ran Windows on my own PC, I’d go months without restarting. I’ve restarted my months-old Fedora install more times than that

      Personally? Months. Regularly weeks. About the same as my servers. Uptime on a single machine isn’t a metric of anything meaningful.

      That said, GitHub ain’t a single machine and the reliability issues are definitely not a good look.
