This website is just AI slop, the real reporting is in the BBC page linked at the end. Photos and numbers seem to be stolen straight from it.
A bit meta - but, what is faun.dev? I visited their site - it looks like a very very slow (possibly because of the current outage?), ad-funded Reddit / HN clone? But, in it's sidebar of "Trending technologies", it lists "Ansible" and "Jenkins" .. which while are both great, I doubt are trending currently. Curious what this is?
> "Ansible" and "Jenkins" .. which while are both great I would strongly argue that there is nothing great about Jenkins. It's an unholy mess of mouldy spaghetti that can sometimes be used to do achieve a goal, but is generally terrible at everything. Shit to use, shit to maintain, shit to secure. It was the best solution because of a lack of competition 20 years ago, but hasn't been relevant or anywhere near the top…

I am curious. I do generally agree with everyone who dislikes Jenkins, as I personally do not like working with it either. However, I don‘t really see a whole lot of competition in the open source CI space, am I missing something major here?
So in a way, an external CI system is a very niche thing. If for some reason that is still needed, I've heard good things about Concourse CI. The last separate CI I've used was Drone CI for fun, but AFAIK it's no longer open source after they got acquired by Harness.
