It's got me thinking of how I might otherwise leverage Github Actions in unconventional ways.
I'm glad! I've been using GitHub Actions for many interesting things apart from building Upptime, like:
- COVID-19 nonprofit work: https://github.blog/2020-08-13-github-actions-karuna/
- Open-sourcing all my life data: https://github.com/AnandChowdhary/life
- Open-sourcing my GitHub notifications: https://github.com/AnandChowdhary/backlog
- Converting all Twitter "following" to lists: https://github.com/AnandChowdhary/twitter-list-sync
- Writing notes and generating a summary: https://github.com/AnandChowdhary/notes
