somehow i am really liking the kind of people that comment in the comment sections of sysadmin posts. i wonder what personality type this is

Bump up to 2d10 and add:

    - Travis
    - CircleCI
    - Drone/Woodpecker
    - Tekton Pipelines
    - TeamCity
    - Zuul
    - Buildkite
    - Agola

Not in love with its insistence on recreating the container from scratch every step of the pipeline, among a bundle of other irksome quirks. There are certainly worse choices, though.

Hudson/Jenkins is just not architected for large, multi-project deployments, isolated environments and specialized nodes. It can work if you do not need these features, but otherwise it's fight against the environment.

You need a beefy master and it is your single point of failure. Untimely triggers of heavy jobs overwhelm controller? All projects are down. Jobs need to be carefully crafted to be resumable at all.

Heavy reliance on master means that even sending out webhooks on stage status changes is extremely error prone.

When your jobs require certain tools to be available you are expected to package those as part of agent deployment as Jenkins relies on host tools. In reality you end up rolling your own tool management system that every job has to call in some canonical manner.

There is no built in way to isolate environments. You can harden the system a bit with various ACLs, but in the end if you either have to trust projects or build up and maintain infrastructures for different projects isolated at host level.

In cases when time-wise significant processing happens externally, you have to block an executor.

Yeah I was thinking of using it for us actually. Connects to everything, lots of plugins, etc. I wonder what the hate is from, they are all pretty bad aren't they ?

Will test forgejo's CI first as we'll use the repo anyway, but if it ain't for me, it's going to be jenkins I assume.
