Weird to have a .charity TLD but promote abusing Github Actions as free compute.

Honestly, I was tyring to pick a name, and I picked the one that made me laugh the most. Sparks joy. Because that's what it really is: a charity of ghost machines. GH provides these amazing free compute minutes, and this is a way to use them to focus on dev tasks.

IN future, I think I'll add other providers.

You're not running a charity. You're probably violating their TOS and abusing the good will they're putting out towards open source projects.

I can't believe it but your little project has for the first time in my life put me in the position of defending Microsoft. I hope they shut it down ASAP.

		For Microsoft, free isn’t free… It puts them in a position of advantage. However, I still agree this is abusing goodwill and is rather disgraceful.
