You've fallen into the trap of an overly simplistic and narrow view. When projects and people move away from DockerHub, it hurts Docker-the-company because it further decreases their already tenuous and evaporating relevance. Reducing a fraction of storage and bandwidth costs isn't important compared to retaining mindshare and the perception of relevance. Edit: @nextlevelwizard The explanation you requested has been provided. Now it seems you're disagreeing with a common, widely accepted phenomenon. I was hoping for a more collaborative interaction.

No company is moving anything. Individuals and some open source projects are moving. I am very surprised if this has any kind of effect.

  Companies will leave if they cannot trust Docker Hub to keep their CI systems working. Scaring decision makers with technical issues and instability is a pretty big nono.

    What company is pulling straight from docker hub anyway? You just blindly trust whatever is there?

      We are pulling from Docker Hub, we're nobody special or big, but still. This shenanigan made us look for alternatives and consider the value the service provides - which didn't end in Docker Hubs favor.

  My team has certainly accelerated the move away from Docker Hub towards our internal registries. And I don't see a reason to stop now. Just one fewer unreliable vendor for us to care about.

    Be sure to not use the free, open source Docker registry https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/ https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/ for internal registry hosting.

      Why not?

    But you are still using docker. My company has always hosted our own repository for containers, that wasn’t the argument being made - it was that people and companies would move away from docker
