Everything happening with Reddit will happen with GitHub.
I'm not saying "GitHub is bad" or "don't use GitHub" -- it's a great platform and if it solves your problem, totally go ahead and use it. I'm just saying that it's a business and at some point someone is going to crunch some numbers and say "hey, these guys are popular and it would be nice if they brought in more revenue," and this is how enshittification starts.

@monsieuricon with the way some folks (ab)use their free CI (myself included) it is not hard to think these "free" services will be severely limited at some point.
8x 2h+ builds for every commit is a bit much, plus 8x 1Gb artifact per commit/build too...

lets see how long all this "free" stuff lasts...

@falktx @monsieuricon it’s all about bringing us to slaughter. Convenience is the new epidemic.

@bitbucket90 @monsieuricon on this case it is not convenience, just the amount of resources available.

I would actually say github actions can sometimes *NOT* be convenient, their CI job syntax is inconsistent on what is allowed or not, making it a pain to use sometimes. So basically it is alike any other CI platform.
Convenience might be due to reusing CI actions, but that is not unique to GitHub.

/me still hoping to see federated git scm (regarding tickets, planning etc around a project)

@falktx Codeberg is working on a federated software forge work Forgejo. They’re even on fedi. @forgejo
