I use a bunch of different CI at work and they are great but if they are offline you are stuffed as they are not portable and running local while possible is a nightmare.

Containers are a solution for this right? If I was open source I’d run CI in docker or similar so you can easily run it locally or on a server.

The assumption is people doing FOSS can’t afford maybe $20 a year to spend on some kind of elastic compute to run this or don’t have a computer powerful enough to run it. I doubt this is the case and if it is just do without CI - just run your tests from IDE before pushing to master.
