Yup! Still haven't switched off of Github, but considering it at this point. If you're in my shoes, here's some tools we use that help:

- https://github.com/sethvargo/ratchet for pinning external Actions/Workflows to specific commit hashes

- https://www.warpbuild.com/ for much faster runners (also: runs-on/namespace/buildjet/blacksmith/depot/... take your pick)

- soon moving to Buildkite for orchestration of our CI jobs

I still just need a reasonable alternative for the "store our git repo, allow us to make and merge prs" part of things. Hopefully someone takes all the pieces that the Pierre team is publishing and makes this available soon. The Github UI and the `gh` cli are actually really nice and the existing alternative code storage tools are not great IMO.

Why warpbuild over the alternatives? I've seen depot before and am tempted, but open to other platforms.

VP at Buildkite here; let me know if you need anything as you begin to move over to us for orchestration. The new trial we just released unlocks everything in the platform, and we can extend past 30 days if you need.
