In my employment from the last 3 years, I saw twice that there were two migrations from internal systems to GitHub. I would think that companies are doing this for cost-cutting measures. It's not like something I am going to research but it'd be interesting that their recent issues are related to large migrations from in-house installations to github and doubly, if that is related to how large companies might be tightening up their spending in the past few years.
Only for a scale approaching github's, otherwise a gitea instance or whatever doesn't have any interdependent components other than the server you host it on, which won't have nearly as low a downtime as github (though that's a low bar, a better way to phrase it would be saying it would pretty much never be down).
Monday is probably the best day for an outage? Everyone's in the office, so you're not disturbing them, and hung over, so you're not hurting their productivity much.

Anything I'd self-host would be down way more often than github.

I self host my own VCS repos. It's never down. It's not rocket surgery to self host, even for business stuff rather than personal.
My on prem forgejo is way less down than github. I use both. You don't have to chose.
