Just self host the whole thing with Forgejo. I run a few github actions on runners all on my own stuff.

I feel like I just want to check out of society lately.
Charging money to run your own actions, what the fuck?
But the sane thought goes with the new increased iOS ads, and just the general state of “now you’re locked in, let the gouging begin” phase of tech. I’m so fucking tired of it.
I know this is self hosted, but man I’m ready to start living in a cave.
Congrats to all the execs, you’ve completely ruined the tech industry.

Part of the app resides on the GitHub infrastructure, where GitHub stores, processes and displays results. So their costs are not zero.
But GitHub could take a “tax the rich” approach to pricing by charging enterprise customers more for self-hostingand leave it free for others.
A lot of open source is funded like that— most funding for a project comes from a very few companies and everything else uses it free or for very low donations or costs.

“now you’re locked in, let the gouging begin”
Essentially the definition of enshittification.

No - I think they made it (involuntary) better by forcing people into looking into self hosting and taking control over their own infrastructure.

I guess that’s true.
This morning my very non techy wife was complaining all the AI shit on her computer was making it slow.
I looked over and Explorer was visibly lagging clicking in to a folder, on a system with an SSD and solid specs.
