The worst thing about Jenkins is that it works

Did you know that with Gitlab you can generate gitlab ci yaml in a job runtime and then run that yaml as a child pipeline using trigger:include:artifact?

This was the only way I could create dynamic terraform pipelines which changed depending on a plan output.

I'm sure could use it to achieve what you've described.

Thank you, that's indeed a good point. And yes, I did consider that. However, then the Gitlab UI (pipelines overview etc.) ceases to be very useful as everything will be inside one big child pipeline (i.e. individual jobs will no longer be shown in the overview). My coworkers would have hated me.
