I am a fan of using renovate, and with docker images in particular since I can define my remote as

  FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:6.0@sha256:15c22c170650b8db2f6250547a2dc5341978b0647c6b21ef67768e628de614f3 AS build

and have renovate automatically merge digest updates, the sha256 hash, while having manually(or automatic) PRs for the tag target.

So a when upstream updates their tag I get a PR(which is automerged) that looks like so, this allows me to know when upstream has changed while still being able to target a broader version range, 6.0 in this case

  - FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:6.0@sha256:15c22c170650b8db2f6250547a2dc5341978b0647c6b21ef67768e628de614f3 AS build
  + FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:6.0@sha256:70b890cd12f73f8ad80061d242081b61da666bda7ec2d729113855a8b9410e1e AS build
