Uptime counts only time we measured. Time without a reading is shown as “no data” and never counted as up. A DM Instagram refuses because of who it was for (they cannot be messaged, or the 24-hour window closed) is not downtime; failures that would hit anyone are. How we measure.

How we measure
- From outside, every 5 minutes: the website, the sign-in page, the services behind them, tracked links and Instagram's webhook address are checked from Cloudflare's network, three tries each.
- From inside, every 5 minutes: Talkspike reads its own queue and send records: how many comments are waiting, how many DMs Instagram accepted, and how many failed for reasons that would hit anyone. Counts only; nobody's comments or messages.
- Confirmed before shown: a problem must repeat before a service changes colour, and a recovery must hold, so one slow minute does not flip the page.
- Accepted, not delivered: Instagram tells us when it accepts a DM, not when the person sees it. "DM sending" means DMs accepted by Instagram.
- Quiet is not down: no comments for a few hours is a quiet afternoon, not an outage, and is never reported as one.
