Reuse Github Actions self hosted runner on multiple repositories

For those that want to know what I did to fix this problem. I installed multiple GitHub runners on my server with different names. Not the best solution, but the only thing thats possible now without a dirty workaround...


Update:

This is possible as of 22nd of April 2020. You can now share runners across an organization. This allows for repositories within your organization to use those runners.

Old Answer:

This is not possible as of yet, according to a Github Partner:

Currently, we have no methods to use the self-hosted runners across repositories, and also have no options to added self-hosted runners on Organization level.
