[feature request] automatic gist backup for github users

That said, I like the idea of making it easy to export a pattern to a Gist easily, so I'll reopen this.

We're currently migrating RegExr to a new server, and trying our best to minimize the impact on users. This is the first time (in ~20 years) we've done this, and we're specifically taking this step because we weren't happy with the prior host's reliability. I appreciate the concern, but hopefully a few hours every couple decades is an acceptable "planned downtime" ratio. :)
