I’m trying to deploy Kafka using the Bitnami image(all versions but any case I get 'not found'):

docker pull bitnami/kafka:latest

But I get:

Status 404: failed to resolve reference "docker.io/bitnami/kafka:latest": not found

It seems they are removed. How can I pull a working Bitnami Kafka image now? Are there any public images that do not require login or payment?

I am on x86_64 architecture, linux.

You got this error because the public image is removed .Instead of bitnami/kafka use apache/kafka

https://hub.docker.com/r/apache/kafka

use this

docker pull apache/kafka:4.1.1

do you know why Bitnami do not support the public image? i can not find any notification all old tags are deleted too
The September 29, 2025, announcement by Broadcom (Bitnami's parent company) finalized significant changes to Bitnami's container image distribution model, moving most of its previously free, public catalog behind a paid subscription. The date was the final cut-off for the deletion of the public docker.io/bitnami. Read Here
As an alternative, Bitnami Legacy repository, you can find a backup of all existing container images, which will receive no further updates or support and should only be used for temporary migration purposes. Bitnami Legacy
