Do folks here have ideas of what will become the best place to host public Docker container images? Between this and the earlier changes to rate limit pulls, Docker Hub no longer seems like the ideal venue for reputable public images.

Should we look into implementing our own registry with AWS ECR or similar?

ECR Pblic, but Quay[0]'s free plan is still without limits. Rooting for them against the crypto-miners.

>Yes! We offer unlimited storage and serving of public repositories.

Interesting reaction. This could also be interpreted as making it _more_ reputable, by removing abuse and cruft, allowing engineering time to be focused on things that provide value to end users.
I'm not sure if I misunderstand the limits[1], but I want my customers to be able to pull the image as many times as they need. While this may help with the concern about quality of images, it still leaves the rate limiting unresolved.

My money's on AWS ECR Public.
