> Why not just simplify the stack? Why pay both the CI vendor and us, when you can just pay us? Coz the CI they "pay" for comes with rest of the stack, and is not just CI product. Both Gitlab and Github have far more than just CI >These weren’t the raving fans we were used to talking with. New people would look at Earthly CI with a skeptical eye. They were mostly thinking that “all CIs are the same - they just have different syntax,” and then they would not really look any further as to why we might actually be different. we don't care about CI, we just need it and we need it to work. If we have working CI manifest for our app, the new app will have same manifest with few find-replace in it. The pain might be there to create it. And the example ones don't really look any easier than doing same thing in Gitlab. Frankly, putting some transpiler that takes Gitlab or Github CI config and just makes Earthfile on the fly would probably convince some people to at least try.
