I just opened the Docker Desktop app... Was really surprised when I saw that I can't skip the update without the Pro subscription... Seriously??
It looks like you can just snooze it, but apparently it will continue to nag you:

>Free users will not be required to install any particular update, but they will continue to get reminders to update.

Super weird.

Ah yes I swear that stupid popup was waiting for me every morning when I started work.

These type nagging tactics are what I expect from the likes of WinRAR, not something from a company that has taken millions in venture funding.

Docker Inc. reeks like the SCO or port-Oracle Sun of our current generation. A very tacky move to what, make them a quick buck?
Skipping Chrome and Windows 10 updates also not free.
