Docker Hub's introduction of pull rate limits in 2020 created significant disruption for companies and big projects, and left a sour taste in a lot of people's mouth. I am not saying that they shouldn't have done it (bandwidth is not free of course), but I'm weary of what user-hostile move they will pull next.
As the maintainer of an open-source project that will publish container images, I am evaluating quay.io vs github packages, as both offer free storage and bandwidth for public projects. Docker has a process for open-source projects to apply and get rate-limits lifted, but why should I bother with it?
My last interaction with Quay was a couple of years ago (so a product might have evolved in the bad direction since), but at the time the publisher UX was pretty good, and the security scanning relevant.
