As a 10+ years old company / YC company + significant amount of market share, I was expecting Docket to be like series D-F or even going public. Wondering if it is actually common for companies in CA to be like that...

Looks like original Docker did Series E in 2017: https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/docker/company_finan...

This is apparently "new/restructured Docker" which did Series A in 2019. From the footnote in the article: https://www.docker.com/press-release/docker-new-direction

It does seem weird to just start the letters over like that, as if it's a new hot startup.

Doing a series H might make investors think harder about why they need 8 rounds of funding over 12 years or so and still didn't manage to turn a profit.
