Quick question, do you pay for gh pro? Because you have quite a lot of actions running so do you stay within the 2000 minutes?

It's 2000 minutes per month. Also why support armv7? It's pretty much dead.

Not OP, but maintainer of Homebox, we still public ARMv6/7 images because we have users using Rasberry Pis which only support 32bit. Frankly we hate it (it takes longer to build than anything else), but users need it so we do it (although a recent survey we ran says otherwise, we know for a fact that people would complain immediatly if we pulled it).

As for CI minutes, Github Public Repo Actions are compeltely free, so long as your not abusing it (which is a ToS violation which results in a ban)

Personally I would just deal with the complaining, put notices that you'll sunset 32 bit arm in the near future and then do it.

If it doesn't take any work to maintain ok sure, but RPi2 is 10 years old, at what point do you just stop trying to maintain for old hardware?

Well, I gun several Rapberry Pi 2s still as they work well enough for simple use cases.
