I'm not sure I understand what issues you had with scheduled builds, can you give me more details? You can use the always: true setting to force scheduled builds to run, otherwise if any build (manual, commit or PR) is started within the timeframe of the schedule, the scheduled build will be ignored.

I tried to benchmark runtime with a 2 hourly job that didn't run over night.

There are so many things in pipelines that work non intuitive that I actually prefer the other services I mentioned.

Wow I was not aware of that, it's really a weird behavior 😕
Thanks for sharing this, I will push it to the team in charge of it and see what I can do.
It's easy to find a workaround (like with a scheduled Azure function call or even with a simple curl scheduled by Travis 😄) but it kinda defeats the point of having it simply exposed in the YAML... I hope GitHub actions will be better in this regard.
