What is the best Github alternative that has something like Github Actions? What is the easiest to switch to? I do not want to switch but it is having too much of an impact on me. It is time to give up on Github. This is just too much.

I am building an MIT-licensed compatible alternative to GitHub Actions at github.com/automata-ci/automata. Very early in development but it already runs some of our internal workflows.

* GitLab * Forgejo Those are my favorites. Both you can self-host for your company, including CI/CD.

GitLab is probably the most reasonable alternative. I migrated and it took me some weeks to adapt to the new CI, but for my use case it's basically equivalent in features. I started with the cloud version, then moved to self-hosted because it wasn't a big effort for our team. We also reduced our monthly invoice by about 50% after the move.

I’m hosting my own https://tangled.org https://tangled.org knot and spindle, and also hosting and building my own Frontend browser for https://forgejo.org https://forgejo.org looking forward to open sourcing it in the future for others to enjoy. For people who want a similar experience today, I’d recommend trying Codeberg (An official instance of Forgejo) though. However, keep in mind they voted in July to ban mostly AI generated repositories.

  Yeah, Codeberg banning AI generated code is weird. AI generated code is the future. It is like during the days of assembly banning high level languages.

Forgejo is probably worth a look if Actions compatibility and an easy migration are priorities. I run Fjord, a dedicated managed Forgejo, so you don't have to operate it yourself. We can help with the migration and runners too. We also have a free public Forgejo instance if you want to try it first.

Just out of curiousity, do people here have non-business-related need for GHA? I've never really seen the use of it for anything I wanted to make on my own time; it's more than easy enough to run tests locally, even on my 12-year-old office desktop. (I'm only using it implicitly because it's how the blog publishing system works under the hood, but the SSG still runs locally.)
