Today I had some spare time and remembered that I wanted to check on Docker for Windows. It was not trivial to find the download link and if you find it, it will redirect you to the Docker Hub login page. A web search quickly led to this Issue in Github.

Conclusion: Until there is a real free download, I’ll will have an eye on the alternatives.
