Been maining opendoas for a while now. The main problem I have with it is that the "don't require a password for ___ seconds" timeout is unconfigurable as far as I'm aware. So you have to enter your password fairly frequently, which can be annoying on non-sensitive machines.

But for simple systems that aren't running complex user privilege management, doas is very much a great replacement.

I don't see any tests on the github. Is there some way to do pipelines for open source projects that wouldn't require funding? Would a free gitlab tier account for stuff like this be within the TOS? I just find it kind of crazy how most of the open source ecosystem has no static analysis or unit tests. I'm not criticizing, I'm trying to figure out how to contribute.

Github does allow (some amount of) GH Actions for free, as does Gitlab.

It does but it's kinda a pain for use for anything but scripting languages in my experience.

They way it scales doesn't fit well with C/C++/Rust/Scala/Java/etc. build systems and test runners.

I'm also having problems with it at work all the time, like task randomly being reported as canceled after they already passed. Or task after completion hanging for well over 30min until some internal timeout triggers and they then get reported as failure. Or a task being reported as succeeded to the UI and as failed to follow up tasks. (All issues I ran into just in the last week :=(, some might be caused by us having to use local GH Actio runners due to how GH Actions work, but I also have seen all this problems before we started using local runners so probably not).

With the persist keyword doas can remember an authenticated user and will not require confirmation by password for five minutes.
