    By default, volumes aren't removed to prevent important data from being
    deleted if there is currently no container using the volume. Use the `--volumes`
    flag when running the command to prune anonymous volumes as well:

    ```console
    $ docker system prune -a --volumes

    WARNING! This will remove:
            - all stopped containers
            - all networks not used by at least one container
            - all anonymous volumes not used by at least one container
            - all images without at least one container associated to them
            - all build cache

    ### Filtering (--filter) {#filter}

    The filtering flag (`--filter`) format is of "key=value". If there is more
    than one filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g., `--filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz"`)

    The currently supported filters are:

    * until (`<timestamp>`) - only remove containers, images, and networks created before given timestamp
    * label (`label=<key>`, `label=<key>=<value>`, `label!=<key>`, or `label!=<key>=<value>`) - only remove containers, images, networks, and volumes with (or without, in case `label!=...` is used) the specified labels.

    The `until` filter can be Unix timestamps, date formatted
    timestamps, or Go duration strings supported by [ParseDuration](https://pkg.go.dev/time#ParseDuration) (e.g. `10m`, `1h30m`) computed
    relative to the daemon machine’s time. Supported formats for date
    formatted time stamps include RFC3339Nano, RFC3339, `2006-01-02T15:04:05`,
    `2006-01-02T15:04:05.999999999`, `2006-01-02T07:00`, and `2006-01-02`. The local
    timezone on the daemon will be used if you do not provide either a `Z` or a
    `+-00:00` timezone offset at the end of the timestamp. When providing Unix
    timestamps enter seconds[.nanoseconds], where seconds is the number of seconds
    that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap
    seconds (aka Unix epoch or Unix time), and the optional .nanoseconds field is a
    fraction of a second no more than nine digits long.

    The `label` filter accepts two formats. One is the `label=...` (`label=<key>` or `label=<key>=<value>`),
    which removes containers, images, networks, and volumes with the specified labels. The other
    format is the `label!=...` (`label!=<key>` or `label!=<key>=<value>`), which removes
    containers, images, networks, and volumes without the specified labels.
