GitHub is free, but the runners are slow and increasingly unreliable.

I use Namespace (https://namespace.so) and I hook it up both to my personal GitHub as well as my personal Forgejo. I’m in the process of moving from the former to the latter!



I didn’t really realize the degree of their slowness, until I migrated one of the projects on a self-hosted gitea and runners. This setup is just breezing! It’s an order of magnitude faster we’re talking about.

Granted, self-hosting git is not feasible for everyone, but GitHub + self hosted runners seems like a very good option.
