… sometimes, I do think it's merited. We switched to Github Actions for our CI and it's been … mixed. It was a hell of a lot of work to switch (GHA is significantly different than what we were moving from and … buggy) and even then, some of the pricing on GHA high. 24¢/GiB/mo for storage[1] which is like 8×? 10×? the sort of cloud baseline, 50¢/GiB data transfer [2], and the runners are similarly costly, IMO. I'm not sure if GHA wins out, in part because we're not done switching.

You can do self-hosted runners aaaand… welcome to infra/ops?

A little NIH syndrome would do the industry good. We need more stuff invented. The current stuff is mediocre.
