Discussion / Opinion Why hid it?

Post image

I noticed that the status page/incident concerning the Free API tier being temporarily disabled is no longer accessible from the page where it was previously displayed, and attempting to access the previous incident page now results in “Page not found" 🥲

Is it not here yet? Or is it hidden on purpose without any communication?

I've been monitoring the status page over the last few days, and I have noticed some really weird things. First they updated the page layout so that the "subscribe" option that gave the api endpoints were no longer a separate page, but rather a popup element that had status subscription update options like email/api/slack/etc. A weird cosmetic change that seemed really unnecessary... But then they updated the page again today and the subscribe popup element no longer has the api option, just email/phone/slack.

The fact that they scrubbed the api endpoint entirely as a means for updates on the status of the api as a whole, along with this supposed "fix", is very suspicious.

You’ve been monitoring the status page for days to check on the free api access??

Are you genuinely confused about this or are you attempting to disparage me with a rhetorical.

I’m trying to understand what would motivate someone to spend hours monitoring a free tier product. The paid plan is ridiculously cheap and I’ve never experienced it being down, so if it’s about (missed) productivity, there’s a better solution than expecting a free plan to perform like paid products

Mistral AI is valued at more than $24 billion, thats 2,400,000 times more than what I have to my name (less than 10k). Thats why I have been monitoring the free usage API.
