Since this is 2023 and we are releasing things that solve X and Y problems in YML I do want to take the opportunity to question whether solving problem for X or Y in YML is really the thing we should be building businesses around these days. I’ve spent the greater part of the last year or so undoing the pain of “reasonably complex GHA in YML” in my organization. It’s one of those things that sounds great conceptually, and works really well simplistically, but once your use case evolves beyond even remotely simple (for example, abstracting and maintaining this code in an engineering org in the tens of people, not even hundreds), it is a slow growing cancer that ends up being a huge time suck, unmaintainable, untestable mess, and technical debt for your org.
