That's probably for the hosted gitlab solution though. For self-hosted
gitlab you can set up custom machines as gitlab workers. The biggest
drawback here is missing gitlab integration.

Sounds like a plan. What CI server should we use though?

I tried concourse-ci which seems nice at first, but it's too
opinionated to be useful for us (now worker cache, no way for newer
commits to auto-cancel builds for older commits, ...)
