How it works
- Badges reflect the latest probe result, updated every 2–5 minutes
- CDN-cached for 5 minutes — fast worldwide, minimal database load
- If 5+ users report issues in 2 hours, badge shows "reported issues" even if probes are green
- No API key required — free and unlimited
- SVG format — sharp on all screens, under 2KB
