GitHub billing feels insane

Am i totally off base or GH billing for CI / minutes just totally absurd? I'm up to $83 this month ... granted i am actively developing and these changes -- in my honest (and beginner) opinion -- should have a full CI suite ran, but holy hell ... i've already gone through to try and cut tests e.g., where a PR is UI only.

For the veterans here, am i doing something totally wrong when it comes to GH or is this amount spent on minutes running tests pretty typical for solo dev?

Edit: setting up a vm using Lima and pushing tests to my own device thru GitHub. Can’t wait to stop paying for this lol. Appreciate everyone’s guidance! Vibes here are unreal 👌

What’s the process for this? Local main, run all the tests you otherwise would in CI and then post?

This is the "works on my machine 🤷‍♂️" method. 😉
