I loved garnix and I’m sad to see the service shut down. That said, open sourcing the platform is the best way to do it I can imagine. I wish the team success at Shopify.

Sounds like they wanted the people and not the product they were developing.

it was posted on may 28th. that's a 6 weeks warning. still not ideal, but hopefully they made sure that users got notified directly too.

btw "garnix" means "nothing" in german. translating the article to german makes for a funny reading: "nothing is shutting down, nothing is open sourced" ;-)

Please read the article. This post is over a month and a half old.

Garnix has as good as no vendor lock-in (awesome!) and NixCI (https://nix-ci.com) is almost a drop-in replacement so at least migrating is super easy.
