AFAIK every NAS just uses unauthenticated connections to pull containers, I'm not sure how many actually allow you to log in even (raising the limit to a whopping 40 per hour).

So hopefully systems like /r/unRAID handle the throttling gracefully when clicking "update all".

Anyone have ideas on how to set up a local docker hub proxy to keep the most common containers on-site instead of hitting docker hub every time?

I'm quite new to docker for NAS stuff - how many pulls would the average person do? like, i don't think i even have 10 containers 🤨

I'm running ~30 containers, but they don't typically all get new updates at the same time.

Updates are grabbed nightly, and I think the most I've seen update at once is like 6 containers.

Could be a problem for setting up a new system, or experimenting with new toys.

The problem is that the main container can (and usually does) rely on other layers, and you may need to pull updates for those too. Updating one app can take 5-10 individual pulls.
