On a Mac mini M1 with Macos 26.1 switching to version 4.52 of Docker Desktop made gitlab-runner fail with the following:
ERROR: Failed to remove network for build
my pipeline uses a Docker dind 28 image to run
Downgrading to Docker Desktop 4.51 solved the issue after half an hour struggling to find out where to download it.
This is a community forum, so mostly Docker users.
If you want to report a bug to the devs, please use github.com/docker/for-mac.
It is most likely a client issue as many recently. The new Docker Desktop comes with Docker CE v29.0.1 which has a new minimum API version requirement. You could try a dind:29 image probably, but I assume you mean the client which could be started from docker:29-cli as well.
Or you can try what @meyay recommended here
