The one that hits us in self hosted is https://auth.docker.io/
mirror.gcr.io is google's public mirror of dockerhub.
You guys don't selfhost a registry?
I know this is selfhosted so most people here are hobbyists, but it's a ton of work to selfhost in enterprise setting. I'd wager 90%+ of people using image registries are using Docker Hub, GHCR, or AWS ECR.
For your personal use, you don't need an enterprise setting. It's just a simple compose file that you run.
You can host a registry in pull through mode, so you still have all the images you use locally, but if it's not in your registry yet, it pulls it from docker hub or whatever.
The only pain point is that a single registry can't do both. So if you want to push your own docker images AND have a "cache" of stuff from docker hub, you need to run two registries in two different modes. And then juggle the url's.
Pretty sure you could run Pulp in pull-through mode and add your local Forgejo/whatever registry as a remote, which would at least give you a unified "pull" URL. Then just use Forgejo actions to handle the actual build/publish for your local images whenever you push to main (or tag a release, or whatever).
Pulp might actually be able to handle both on its own, I haven't ever tried though.

Who wants to bet Amazon gave AI full access to their prod config and it screwed it up.
Or some engineer decide today would be a great day to play with BGP
That's a good theory haha
That explains why my Matrix <-> Signal bridge was complaining about being disconnected.

A bad day for Jeff Bezos is a good day for all of us
Yeah, was reading about it here too
Ring doorbells, Alexa, ahh... the joys of selfhosting.
Is there no way to check the doorbell video locally?
An Amazon employee misconfigures something and now your doorbell doesn't work
Obligatory
Oh wow their front page doesn't mention at all that their products run locally and don't require subscriptions.
It mentions push notifications and emails, so I guess they must require an account, or can you configure them to use SMTP directly, as with the Amcrest Pro cameras?

Good
For some reason I hear Gilfoyle pontificating about what he does
