I'll CC myself to this bug but it doesn't look like anything will happen soon.

I needed to deploy more services on a very constrained box, and this has
given me enough headroom not to worry for a while. Compromise is fine,
but finding out through trial&error is needlessly tedious. Unless of course
I missed the red tape with "here be dragons", in which case it would have
been totally on me and that's where I think Fedora's container registry
could be improved.

I'm wondering whether container pages went blank because something
went missing during the recent data center move.

The blank pages are flatpaks. We are using the same registry for containers and flatpaks and the upstream project[0] used for registry.fp.o does not support flatpaks so the page is just blank.

There has not been much interest in improving registry.fp.o since we looked at moving stuff to quay.io.
