We used to have self-hosted runners on Hetzner dedicated servers, and we migrated to UbiCloud ~6 months ago.

Unless you can optimise your CI runtime to be very balanced and fast, you're going to have a lot of jobs queued during working hours ... although it costs more per minute, the fact that CI jobs are bursty means it works out not too much costlier but with less queue time.

Oh good point. Hadn't thought of the bursty nature of the load.

Sounds like you need to share infra with an org of similar needs in a vastly different timezone.

I guess that's what SaaS CI solutions are in a way. :)
