Our current GitHub bill is $90/month, this would add an additional $700/month. I don't see how this doesn't cause a mass outflux.

How much do you pay for the servers that run actions? Is it much more than $610? Then it kinda makes sense.

		No it's much less. Our runners are hosted in AWS ECS, you'd be surprised how affordable you can make that given the right optimizations (which is probably why GH made this decision).

Curious: Can you expand a little bit on your usage? $700/month equates to 350,000 minutes. Are you just running a truck-load of different Actions, or are the Actions themselves long-lived (waiting on something to complete)?

		Just a lot of different actions, none of them long-lived. It's CI/CD for a large monorepo maintained by a relatively small team. We use feature branch deployments, so we trigger a lot of builds.
