Earlier this year I priced out AWS's on-demand m7i.large instances at $0.002/minute [1]. GitHub's two-core costs $0.008/minute today so it was a nice savings. But it looks like this announcement doubles the self-hosted cost and reduces their two-core system pricing to $0.006/min.

From this perspective this is a huge price jump, but self-hosting to save money can still work out.

Honestly, GitHub Actions have been too flaky for me and I'm begrudgingly reaching for Jenkins again for new projects.
