It seems biased that only GitHub was scraped, that seems like it would mostly exclude systems linked to other forges like GitLab CI.

I know there's all kinds of biases in what we see.

But, from a european gamedev standpoint, I have never worked in a company that professionally depended on github-actions.

All I ever saw was Gitlab-CI and Jenkins (and a small instance of buildbot).

So seeing the absolute dominance of github-actions is somewhat jarring to me and doesn't paint a picture of my lived reality.

That said; none of what I'm talking about is open source - but I would expect to see more gitlab-ci in this list.

Cool comparison. Both guys helped shape early computing but in totally different ways, one pushing from the garage, the other from within the system. It’s a good reminder that innovation doesn’t follow one path and impact isn’t always loud or obvious at first.

Make is still king in 2025. I don't understand why someone would use Just or Taskfile instead of Make. My only hypothesis is that people believe (erroneously) that whatever is new is automatically better than what is older.
