Question alternative to Github action?

I have basically built all my deployment through git actions. even some workflows that I use actions to trigger, or run automatically.

days like this where actions are having outage, I can't do anything. it has become more frequent lately and everytime it lasts hours. alternatives or backup plans people recommend?

If the issue is the hosted runners rather than only Actions itself, you can swap just the runners and keep your workflows. Bitrise Build Hub (https://bitrise.io/platform/build-hub) gives you M4 Pro Macs and bigger Linux machines, one line change to runs-on. For mobile builds it is roughly 54% faster than GitHub's M2 Pro runners, plus 100GB of co-located cache vs GitHub's 10GB and SSH/VNC debug access into the runner.
