    I’m a fan of this, although I’m concerned about the security/trust model: using a third-party CI orchestrator on top of GHA means trusting them with all of your secrets, potentially sensitive logs, etc. Those concerns are somewhat lessened in the context of public repos, but even public repos contain nontrivial workflows that use configured secrets.

    My experience with RISC-V so far is that the chips are not much faster than QEMU emulation. In other words, it's very slow.

      Oftentimes slow is fine, when the work is parallel and the hardware is cheap

    Sadly still on quite old hardware, with no RVV. Hopefully scaleway will have some newer servers in the future and this can be simply updated to the new devices.

    Very good move. Hopefully GitHub won't ruin this with their CI charging changes.

    ..is this RVA23?

    Perfect for snooping on other people’s projects. No one in their right mind would touch this. It’s cheaper to buy the board yourself.

      Yes, what a devious plan: give open source software projects a free CI service so you can... read their open source software code?

      It seems to be a Linux Foundation project, my trust is implicit higher than what you're claiming. Why wouldn't you trust them?

      It's also aimed at open-source projects, for free, with the intent to improve RISC-V support.

      RISE is supported by many legit companies. Stealing is for sure not the intent.

      The idea is to promote testing on RISC-V and to eliminate lack of hardware for being the reason not to. Obviously, low budget projects and Open Source are the primary targets. Commercial products can afford real RISC-V hardware.

      This is who you are trusting: https://riseproject.dev/members/

      people better not be snooping on my public open source projects!

      The target for this is open-source projects.
