I don’t know what’s worse - in 2026 someone genuinely suggesting Jenkins as a viable GHA alternative, or me agreeing with that.
Jenkins has possibly the worst user experience of any piece of software I’ve had to use in the last few years. It’s slow, brittle, somehow both heavyweight and has no features, littered with security vulns due to architecture, is impossible to navigate, has absolutely no standardisation for usage.
And yet it’s still more reliable than GHA.
- PxldLtd 7mo agoYep, I went through the exact same pains. We desperately wanted to move to something else and I kept steering us away from Jenkins as I'd experienced its pains at a previous role. We evaluated tons of different options and begrudgingly settled on Jenkins too.
- maccard 7mo agoI think TeamCity is a better product, and I’d be happy to pay for it tbh!
