Docker automatically upgrades if you tell it to by specifying "latest" or not specifying a version number. But it only upgrades if you issue the pull command or the compose up command. There are ways to start without a pull like using start or restart. So yes, there was warning and something you did actively told it to upgrade.
And it's really bad practice to update any software without testing, especially between breaking/major version numbers.
Finally, it's not uncommon for a platform to release its update and then the plugins or addons to follow. Especially with major updates that require lots of testing before release. This allows plugin/add-on makers to fully test their software with the release version of the platform rather than all of the plugin makers having to wait for one that may be lagging behind.
You again commented on the docker upgrade comment that I said it's irrelevant. It's really like saying "if you wore pants that day, they wouldn't have done that, it's your fault". It doesn't make sense to spend $1000 in operating costs to host a useless survey that gets 3 responses a year. If it breaks for a week nobody dies.
Focus on how they're moving fast and breaking things, ok? It's not normal that official plugins don't support the latest stable release. It's not an alpha, it's not a beta, it's stable. Stable means everything needs to work. Official plugins need to support the latest stable release. It's acceptable only if this was a third party plugin made by a hobbyist in their free time
WordPress updates also break many plugins but it never happened that a stable release blocked official ones like woocommerce.
By the way, now I have learned that the latest version of nextcloud is a public beta and it's better to always stay one version behind. So why don't they call it public beta?
