I don't get the GitHub Container Registry, GitHub Package repository, or GitHub Actions. The only good thing about these products seems to be integration with GitHub. But in many ways they are inferior to other CI and artifact hosting options. The biggest problem is the latency will be significant outside of your own network. The other big issue is security. That's fine, they are new products... except they don't seem to be moving in a direction that would fix these problems. I think maybe a lot of programmers don't realize what they're missing, they're just using them because they're from GitHub.

More often than not, people want build artifacts in the same security profile / performance profile as their CI/CD pipelines. Think of this more as services to support your GitHub Action workflows - where inter-service bandwidth is free and highly performant.
