As of today, all prune commands were merged into single docker system prune: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/system_prune/#examples

Which is a terrible design choice because it unknowingly purges just about everything useful to use Docker by default, which causes a ton of development overhead helping colleagues recover network configuration, etc. when simply trying to free up space on the system.

Docker seems to mess up just about everything they do.
