> better but more complicated

Completely agree. Using GH actions for this is really verbose and clunky, and makes you rely on too many third-parties.

They actually have a light wrapper on GitHub actions in the projects view now that may replace a lot of the really common actions. It’s GUI based and right now it can only do very simple things but I could see it being the new way for less techy people to put basic automation in

“Only do simple things”. It’s basically useless given how little it can do.

Thinking about this a bit more (can’t edit above, so replying to myself).

The other annoying thing about the “simple” method is that it’s also outside of your repo. So that configuration isn’t versioned, it isn’t really present anywhere. Your actions code, clunky as it is, is still code.

Simple and code-driven shouldn’t be mutually exclusive.
