Docker Desktop completely kills my disk space (feddit.org)

Hi guys, I have no problem running docker (containers) via CLI, but I though it would be nice try Docker Desktop on my Ubuntu machine. But as soon as I start Docker Desktop it runs "starting Docker engine" indefinitely until my drive is full. The .docker folder then is about 70GB large. I read somewhere that this is the virtual disk size that is being created and that I could change it in the settings, but those are blocked until the engine starting process is finished (which it never does). Anyone else has experienced this?
