Unpopular Opinion: "99.9% Uptime" is a vanity metric.

We obsess over "Server Uptime." We pay for Status Pages to show off our "99.9% Green Bars."

But let's be honest: How many of us actually monitor "Functional Uptime"?

I audited a site recently.

Server Uptime: 100%

Login Success Rate: 0% (Broken Auth Token)

They lost leads for 12 hours because their monitoring tool was "Happy" with a 200 OK response.

The Question:
What stack are you guys using to catch Logic Failures (not just server crashes) in 2026? Playwright? Cypress? Or just waiting for angry user emails?

(P.S. I built PingSLA to solve this using headless browsers. I need a few power users to stress-test the bulk dashboard. Let me know if you want 1 year of the Growth Tier for free to test it out.)
