Don't blame me. The idea came from Martin Woodward (from GitHub) and I was surprised how I had it up and running, executing builds in a few minutes.

What kinds of things would you run with yours? Maybe you could use a GitHub action to trigger IoT lights on and off.

I use Github Actions mostly for automatically publishing my website when I change its content. But I haven't fully set up my build pipeline to my liking. And getting logs and stuff when the pipeline goes sideways isn't very easy right now with Github Actions. If I hosted my own running, at least I could poke around my build environment to see why it failed until I have it running reliably enough to let the cloud handle it.

That's a long-winded way to say: debugging.
