It's pretty easy to write your own. I made this one a while ago: https://github.com/chainguard-dev/crow-registry

I've seen it but it's buggy and lacking in features. Feels like an afterthought instead of a real product

Well, Cloudflare does not launch anything. They acquire to build products. Look into all their recent product launches. They acquired a relatively small company and converted the founding team to a product team.

So, if you want them to build stuff, ask yourself, are there any "Docker Registry" startups out there. If jsdelivr/globalping is not keeping you busy enough... there is an idea

Honestly I would build it if I knew how to properly market it to quickly get users.

Globalping and jsDelivr took years to gain a meaningful user base

I do not think that is the issue. The recent acquisitions from all these big tech companies did not have any "meaningful" user base to begin with.

I think your name alone carries significant weight in the industry and you have built a very large community.

If you even vibe code something with, you will get a stupid amount of money thrown at you and a contract that bounds your existing projects and the next 3-5 years to a particular company as project lead.

Here is a list of acquisitions Cloudflare made recently: https://blog.cloudflare.com/tag/acquisitions/

Most of these companies did not have a half dozen paying customer or even a fully fleshed-out product before they were acquired.

I wish I had as much faith in myself as you have in me :)

What would the business case be?

Capture developers and funnel them to the Workers platform
