I’m surprised it’s still around. Since GitHub released Actions and Travis abandoned the freemium, there weren’t many reasons to stay

I can't believe it took me so long to formally flip the bozo bit on Travis CI by instructing my RSS feed reader never to show me anything about it any more.

arm64 is one reason.

Set a GitHub runner on one of those free Oracle Cloud ARM64 instances.

Sure that is doable, but it doesn't quite sound like a OOB solution where you just add a flag to your YAML, or another line to your build-matrix and call it a day.

I've honestly missed this on Github Actions, and hadn't (yet) found a simple enough workaround to bother.

But it is also set and forget kind of thing.

If it’s that easy… git a link to a quick howto? :)

Does it work regular (free) accounts, free organizations or other similar setups used by non-commercial open-source projects?

You can find a guide on getting an ARM64 instance in Oracle Cloud elsewhere.
