This is an absolutely wild statement to me. I find github actions to be really terrible for any reasonably complex CI flows; gitlab's CI is the primary reason we use it instead of github. If github's CI was worth a damn we'd certainly be there; as it is we mirror a bunch of repos to github just for discoverability.

Same. GitLab CI isn’t perfect, but it is quite excellent and GitHub seems very rudimentary in comparison. At my job we’ve been using GitLab CI for a few years now. We did an analysis of what it would take to move to GitHub and the answer was on the order of hundreds / thousands of person-hours and there are some things we just couldn’t port, period.

Have you tried it in the last year? It’s far ahead of anything else on offer, including products that do just CI.

It’s like they’ve been laying low and learning from everyone else’s mistakes, and then boom.

Agreed. Github Actions are the wonkiest, Rube Goldberg shit I have ever worked with.
