Design notes, devlog, and release announcements from building Berthly, the native macOS GUI for Apple's container tool.https://berthly.net/https://berthly.net/blog/berthly-1-3-0/https://berthly.net/blog/berthly-1-3-0/Tracks apple/container 1.3.0. container 1.3.0 dropped the 'auto' connection scheme and its local-registry detection — Berthly runs that check itself now, so plain-HTTP registries on localhost or a private network still work without the insecure toggle.
