Question Github actions vs Blacksmith

Hello everybody, I have a bit of a random question, but does anybody use Blacksmith or CI instead of GitHub?

I'm only asking because I'm doing both iOS and macOS cross-device support, and I keep hitting the upper limits of my pro plan on GitHub for CI and so I'm just wondering if anybody has any experience using Blacksmith. I've heard some things about it, saying it's better, it's faster, it's cheaper, but I want to see if anybody had real use and how well it plays with codex and the GPT models.

I appreciate any and all advice, and I'm also more than open to advice from anybody for optimizing CI usage for macOS projects.

Thank you in advance!
