We are excited to bring you our new and improved pull request experience. The entire Bitbucket engineering team has been enjoying the experience and are looking forward to you trying it. In the coming weeks, we'll begin to enroll more people into the new experience with the option to switch back to the old view if needed.

Docker recently announced that, starting November 1 2020, pull rate limits will apply to anonymous image pulls from Docker Hub. For anonymous (unauthenticated) users, pull rates are limited based on the individual IP address, and therefore some service disruption was expected for Docker Hub users. Bitbucket is working with Docker to ensure that Bitbucket Pipelines users can continue transparently using Docker Hub without rate limits nor any configuration.

A lot has happened in the past year (understatement of the year)! What the team has accomplished is tremendous, but we've also learned a thing or two that we can work further to improve.
