What does this mean practically for choosing GHA vs. other CI options?


He raises some fair points, I find it odd how actions/checkout has to raise its version number when it drops support for older node versions, a package manager type of system could account for compatible node versions

There is competition at least. https://www.ubicloud.com/use-cases/github-actions fights on perf/price, but gets stuck being compatible

But I'm annoyed too by things like the pain involved to have docker let rust builds use a volume to cache build artifacts. cargo-chef is a hack

Ideally I could have docker images as dependencies building with actions sharing images between each other. Not sure why actions can't form a DAG of inputs/outputs
