I have come up with a slogan for Jenkins: "Jenkins - The butler that does not hesitate to do a disservice".
It is currently the most brittle piece of infrastructure we run, with jobs spiralling out of control and slaves crashing with cryptic exceptions. Add to that a horrible plugin ecosystem (tried to install the Slack plugin, it crashed all builds and our webhook endpoint). Add to that groovy (I don't feel like becoming an archeologist).
Gosh, can't someone just build a lightweight ci/cd system ontop of e.g. k8s jobs?

Or should we just give up and do managed ci/cd?
