@slipset as for CI for Etaoin, if you are curious, still deciding on CircleCI vs GitHub Actions.

slipset12:05:18

I’d prefer Circle

delaguardo12:05:40

could you share why?

lread12:05:26

I'm guessing maintenance burden of managing multiple CIs?

lread12:05:07

CircleCI might not be as practical for Etaoin. It needs to do browser testing on win,mac and linux. And although there is now free tier support for that on CircleCI, GitHub Actions seems more fleshed out.

slipset12:05:10

I like Circle :). Circle is Clojure, and we as a community have a good relationship with them. Having said that, I'm not opposed to GA, I just like and am used to Circle

lread12:05:02

Did you also hear that they are moving away from Clojure?

lread13:05:53

I also find myself wanting to use CircleCI, but sometimes it is not the practical choice.

delaguardo13:05:46

I've heard they moved already

delaguardo13:05:59

few years ago

slipset13:05:23

Front end is moved off long time ago. I believe the backend is still Clojure

lread13:05:26

And also with GitHub Actions I get to use @U04V4KLKC’s awesome actions! simple_smile

Last I heard, CircleCI were moving the backend to Go -- easier to hire engineers, according to new management there?

seancorfield13:05:09

I have switched all my projects from CircleCI to GitHub at this point -- I just find it a lot easier to work with, and it seems much faster.

Circle is Clojure, => that's no longer true, they are moving away from Clojure :(

borkdude14:05:07

I'm ok with using Github Actions for Etaoin, at least you won't hit a credit limit there and the OS build matrix seems a little easier there as well

Move circle ci to common 😞

I'm just sad to hear they migrated off Clojure, half humorously suggesting they should contribute their clojure code to clj-commons

lread16:05:29

Heya @slipset when you have a moment, can you give me github repo privs for https://github.com/clj-commons/etaoin?

lread16:05:56

(I’m guessing @borkdude already has god privs on all of clj-commons, but if not, him too please?)
