The storage costs coming in from 1st March feel like they're going to catch a lot of organisations out too. Private repos will cost $10/month per 100GB of storage, something that was previously not charged for. We're in the middle of a clear out because we have several TB of images that we'd rather not pay for on top of the existing subscription costs.

The storage enforcement costs have been delayed until 2026 to give time for new (automated) tooling to be created and for users to have time to adjust. The pull limits have also been delayed at least a month.

  Do you have a source for that? My company was dropping dockerhub this week as we have no way of clearing up storage usage (untagging doesn't work) until this new tooling exists and can't afford the costs of all the untagged images we have made over the last few years.

    (I work there) If you have a support contact or AE they can tell you if you need an official source. Marketing communications should be sent out at some point.

      Thanks, Just seems like quite poor handling on the comms around the storage changes as there is only a week to go and the current public docs make it seem like the only way to not start paying is to delete the repos or I guess your whole org.

        Yep, agree that comms have a lot of room for improvement. We do have initial delete capabilities of manifests available now, but functionality is fairly basic. It will improve over time, along with automated policies.

When will people pay their engineers to do actual engineering, instead of as a proxy for SaaS spending? Please, dear God, just hire one guy to run a mirror. Then, every time Docker et al turn the screws, we don't have to have these threads.
