Many people are quite upset. But on the other hand, how many years could this work? Petabytes of data and traffic.
When we started to offer an alternative to Docker Hub in 2015-2016 with container-registry.com, everyone was laughing at us. Why are you doing that, you are the only one, Docker Hub is free or almost free.
Owning your data and having full control over the distribution is crucial for every project, event open source.

We run a CNCF Harbor-based container registry service (https://container-registry.com/), happy to help the project and offer a registry free of charge. Harbor has the valuable option that allows you to replicate images to other registries. So, you push images to a central place and from there they are automatically replicated to ghcr, gcr, ecr, Docker Hub and so on.
Happy to show and explain the various options and possibilities to the community here.
