Xcode cloud is terrible. Slow. Fails randomly with unknown error messages.

Save yourself time and money with an M1 Mac mini as a GitHub actions self hosted runner.

Pays for itself quickly, you can upload apps direct to App Store Connect from Xcode cli tools already.

>Slow. Fails randomly with unknown error messages.

I mean, that’s Xcode on your machine. Why would Xcode on someone else’s machine be any better?

If you’re going to complain that Xcode Cloud is unreliable, it’s probably best not to suggest GitHub Actions as an alternative, it doesn’t have the best track record for reliability itself.
