Actually, most points in the article are the basis on why we created BuildJet.
We initially tried to solve these annoyances by creating a CI with speed and the YAML config as a USP. We got 4x speed and a much better YAML config structure, but despite these improvements we noticed that it people had a mental barrier to migrate to a new unknown CI.
But like OP we always enjoyed the experience of using GitHub Actions, so with this in mind. We decided to build BuildJet for GitHub Action[1] that uses the same infrastructure but plugs right into Github Action as a "self-hosted" runner, which is automatically set up for you with OAauth. This resulted on average a 2x speed improvement for half the cost(due to us being close to the metal). Easy to install and easy to revert.

- rexelhoff 5y agoJust checked it out. I like the idea of BuildJet. Something dead simple like this is what I've been looking for. The biggest problem is that I don't feel comfortable putting our IP out on a server managed by a small provider. If you had an offering where I could self-host, I'd be very interested. BTW. You have a broken link to "Privacy" from the "Terms" page.
