#32I guess I’ll start to look at an alternative to GitHub self hosted runners. It’s been awhile since I looked. What’s a good alternative?
buildkite

#33Back to Buildkite I go.

#34Tangled has a nix based workflow engine that looks very similar, if you are into nix and self-hosting runners https://tangled.org/tangled.org/core/blob/master/docs/spindl... (no affiliation) --- Blog post about Tangled's CI: https://blog.tangled.org/ci
Very cool! Are there any blog posts or articles about Tangled? Docs seem pretty light.

#35> > We are introducing a $0.002 per-minute Actions cloud platform charge for all Actions workflows across GitHub-hosted and self-hosted runners. Holy s*** That's more expensive than an m8i.large. What on earth.
That's actually $90/month, that's kind of crazy.
I realise 100% utilisation isn't realistic, but that still sounds very expensive when you're already BYOB.

#36I didn't find a single example of any of the upcoming features, should I follow them in github to read release notes?
Re: Pricing Changes for GitHub Actions
#37Why would the self-hosted runner fee be per-minute instead of per-job? I don’t get it.

#38I have a love-hate relationship with GitHub Actions. Love because they are right there in my GitHub repository. Hate because they are very brittle once you move out of the happy path.
It seems GitLab has a much better experience in this department, but their pricing is hard to justify for us...
Genuinely curious if folks here had better experiences or recommendations for a smooth CI/CD experience.

#39Pay even more to bring your own hardware? Well, that's new. I get that self-hosted runners generate huge egress traffic, but this is still wild. Hope it pushes more companies to look into self-hosted Gitea / Forgejo / etc.
Jenkins not looking so bad anymore..

#40Anything that prices spammers out of abusing GitHub actions is a win in my book...
