Everyone should actually read the docker FAQ instead of assuming. This only applies t inactive images.

What is an “inactive” image? An inactive image is a container image that has not been either pushed or pulled from the image repository in 6 or months.

That may well be true, but now I have to pull images every 6 months, some I very much doubt I’ll ever upgrade but will pull anytime I format the relevant host.

It sucks that this isn’t for new images only. Now I have to go and retrospectively move my old images to a self hosted registry, update all my absolve scripts to the new uris, debug any changes, etc.
