The information not included in the title is that Docker-the-Company is only shutting down DockerHub private free registry container image hosting. Presumably the publicly accessible DockerHub projects can continue, business as usual. Are there alternative docker registry hosts which provide free private image hosting? Edit: I found a gist with an extensive list! https://gist.github.com/JakubOboza/fbd6259f5b6321f17e8c3cdb1b095004 https://gist.github.com/JakubOboza/fbd6259f5b6321f17e8c3cdb1...

I just got the same email, and am a bit confused on that point. The FAQ makes it sound like it's about private repos, but from the email the scope appears to be broader: [edit: email removed to reduce noise since it appears elsewhere in these comments: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35154060 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35154060]

It's really unclear but from this paragraph in the email it sounds like the whole organization will be "subject to deletion": > If you don’t upgrade to a paid subscription, Docker will retain your organization data for 30 days, after which it will be subject to deletion. During that time, you will maintain access to any images in your public repositories, though rate limitations will apply. At any point during the 30-day period, you can restore access to your organization account if you upgrade to a paid subscription.

If you look pricing table of Docker, https://www.docker.com/pricing/ https://www.docker.com/pricing/ There is no Teams for free tier. Likely everything is affected.

  Does this mean DockerHub is going to stop hosting all the open source container imahes? That'd be a great way to make Docker-the-company 100% irrelevant. I hope we're misunderstanding and they wouldn't do such a move.

    Personally, when they introduced rate limits couple years ago, Docker became irrelevant for me already, and I have moved into GitHub and Quay. We will see what will happen.

    am surprised Docker is relevant as they have been openly hostile to the open source community for a long time... the community that made them... the sooner everyone moves on from docker and let it fade into the history book the better the ecosystem will be
