For the _most_ part I don't see what was so toxic about it.

But compare it with the corporate response. Doing this kind of thing without warning to loyal customers and then being dismissive about it is also very toxic.

I disagree with the decision, and I am a Docker user, but I'm not sure I agree with calling them "customers."

For the record, I skimmed the discussion too, and I don't understand "astounding level of toxicity" either.

What do you call a person who dismisses your valid concern and declines to respond to perfectly plain, honestly formulated questions in good faith? That's a jerk.
