I wonder how many people only use Minio as a localdev S3 alternative.

At least that's all we use it for really

I have a 160TB minio cluster running for 4+ years who had dealt beautifully with node outages, one drive failure and the occassional hiccups on the datacenter.

I was okay with not having support because I am not part of their customer base. I was okay with not having the webUI, though I wish they made an option where the webUI would be available for some basic-tier paid customers. But I can not be okay with this move. They are just giving the finger to all the community. They never tried to work out a solution that could let smaller users to contribute or support.

I will seriously have to consider moving to Hetzner object storage.

What is the problem exactly you are facing now?

Right now, my problem is that I can not update my minio cluster because I do not know of any trustworthy docker image that I can use, and the version I am on is exposed to (at least) one known CVE.
