GitHub CI is a very weird product. My team pays a decent bit of money for it, and we are nowhere near hitting the minutes limit, but at the same time we easily run into the storage limits, and the runner is incredibly slow?
On top of that the tooling is just... not good. The more I use it, the more I get annoyed at weird UX decisions, strange missing features, and the whole thing just being a giant bowl of spaghetti in general. You can easily spend days trying to make your workflows not suck just to realize halfway through that you could've been done already if you had just handwritten the damn thing in Bash.
We now live in the insane world where I am glad our tickets are still in the nightmare called Jira, because every day I get closer to asking management to switch to a forge which is actually functional - and with only CI and Git the transition would not be very difficult...
