Thanks for the detailed and thoughtful feedback. I'd love to get on a call with you to discuss your needs and some of the items on our roadmap. If you're interested, email me at [email protected].

We're working on the design for autoscaling self-hosted agents. We call it "Bring your own subscription". Ya, it needs a better name. You can read more about our thoughts here. https://github.com/Microsoft/azure-pipelines-agent/blob/mast...

We're adding CD/release features to YAML pipelines right now. I'd like to chat about the features you want to see first since we're prioritizing.

Docker layering caching is something we're discussing. There are some trade-offs with it vs. other approaches.
