Based on my experience I really do think most people are using it for things that they could perfectly well do locally with far less complication.
Perhaps that isn't most use of it; the big projects are really big.
- wiether 11mo agoCare to provide examples? Fundamentally, yes, what you run in a CI pipeline can run locally. That's doesn't mean it should. Because if we follow this line of thought, then datacenters are useless. Most people could perfectly host their services locally.

- wiether 11mo agoI'm aware of people arguing for self-hosting some services for personal use. I'm not aware of people arguing for self-hosting team or enterprise services.
- eudamoniac 11mo agoWell, they are. Selling the team or enterprise a license to do just that is a rather large part of many businesses.
