Status page currently says the only issue is notification delays, but I have been getting a lot of Unicorn pages while trying to access PRs.

Edit: Looks like they've got a status page up now for PRs, separate from the earlier notifications one: https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/smf24rvl67v9

Edit: Now acknowledging issues across GitHub as a whole, not just PRs.



They added the following entry:

Investigating - We are investigating reports of impacted performance for some GitHub services. Feb 09, 2026 - 15:54 UTC

But I saw it appear just a few minutes ago, it wasn't there at 16:10 UTC.


And just now:

Investigating - We are investigating reports of degraded performance for Pull Requests Feb 09, 2026 - 16:19 UTC


Yeah I've been seeing a lot of 500 errors myself, latency seems to have spiked too: https://github.onlineornot.com/


I cannot approve PRs because the JSON API is returning HTML error pages. Something is really hosed over there.


Yep, trying to access commit details is just returning the unicorn page for me


git operations are down too.
