Dear #Lazyfedi, what are you using for CI these days for (small scale) commercial projects?

I've previously used CircleCI to good effect, but their semi-recent security disasters and now trying to make me pay for a bunch of slop features I don't need has put me off them.

Any reccys?

Boost appreciated! TIA! x

Spent some time last week reviewing hosted CI solutions for integration with #Radicle, for folks wanting to move away from #GitHubActions.

Disappointingly, several main players (#circleci, #spacelift, #travis) don't seem to allow cloning from vanilla Git(!!) - they require a Git(Hub|Lab) account :(

I'm finding the changes being made to CircleCI to be totally baffling. Like, I can't mentally map where the different pages are or what they do.
Every other button press seems to yeet me onto a page I've never seen before, with all the data I would expect having been totally rearranged.

Almost forgot how to use #CircleCI's local job running tool. So handy. Also still a bit more usable than the thirdparty GHA equivalent (`act`).

#CircleCI found a new (to me ?) path to #enshitification : start sending email notifications for *every* CI status (including "completed without error") instead of just failures (which was annoying already, mind you). Now in order to turn these off, you *must* associate an account to the email you have set for your git user, and then tell them "a bit about yourself". I did it out of spite, so jokes on me, but next time I'm seeing this pattern, it'll be a client-side email filter and straight to the trash.

Gah, CircleCI stopped sending notification emails from `[email protected]` and now sends from generic `[email protected]`.

Great way to not be able to separate build notifications from other mails

For anyone else using #CircleCI for #Python projects, PSA that they added Python 3.14 to their 'cimg' library mid last week. 🐍🎉

Updated all my 'modernized enough to want to CI on 3.14' projects' .circleci/config.yml files just now.

Think the main outlier now for that work (pyproject.toml, dropping Python<3.9) is Fabric (which I'll do soon) and then I am mostly done sans some of the smaller projects.

How exactly do "blobless" clones work on #CircleCI? I've received their email about introducing a faster #git clone method and they're not kidding: for wxWidgets, using "blobless" brought clone time down from 82s to 14s in their environment.

Does anybody know if this is something we can use at home^W^W with #Forgejo Actions as well? I have a few jobs where clone time dominates the total running time of the job.
