You should feel bad for their support, which made very unwise decision and stayed operational...

I bet it's only green, because you can still reach their web portal. It doesn't check any throughput. Or it does and it's green because a fuckton of tickets get created and instantly closed with "known error, check status page for updates".

Hey you can't use Jira, means you can get some real work done

[–] [email protected] 52 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Programmers are probably chill af, looks like a very bad day for some network people though.

"Thank you for calling the development team quick response hotline. Please leave a message and we will relay it to the networking team as soon as possible. Seriously, it's probably a network thing. It works on our machines. You should call networking directly next time. Please hold and you will be transferred automatically." /s

A status page that acknowledges service failures?

Is this a new concept? I have never seen anything like it.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It's a product that Atlassian is selling: https://www.atlassian.com/software/statuspage

Not to be confused with their statuspage for their services: https://status.atlassian.com/

Or the status page for their status page system (which apparently has an ongoing incident): https://metastatuspage.com/

It's probably a bug. I've seen it before when an update broke the CDN that loads the green "everything is fine" icons. /s

RUN, BE FREE! You can escape their tracking now. They will never find you in the forest, eating nuts & berries.

Why does this happen so often currently? Atlassian is so unreliable, we are not able to work efficiently because of them having problems like once a month

Ah the classic. Firing the people you need the most in emergencies

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

What's this?!? The consequences of my own action?!? Who would have guessed?!?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

That doesn't explain the last several years of instability.

I'm glad my org hasn't been forced into their Cloud crap yet.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What does your company use?

Because I seriously don't have a problem with their tools.

And Hell, a system outage in my company just means we goof off for a few hours.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

On-prem stuff. Which is weird because we are apparently full speed into Office 365, Microsoft cloud auth, other crap

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Using Atlassian stuff is already a hassle. It’s probably a feature to not have it work at all.

What happened? I'm on vacation and out of the loop

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Some users are unable to login to cloud products.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And that's why sometimes on-premise is better.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I remember when we went from on-prem to cloud jira. Less features, lot slower.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

Just as today my brother went on a 30 minute rant on how terrible Jira and Confluence are. Hmmmmm...
