How did your journey begin? I feel like Docker has been getting mentioned for aeons and I've only just started using it now.

I know this seem like a typical "Your opinion man" post but honestly, is there anything really useful beyond hosting an adblocker? (read: complementary, not found elsewhere, that enhances own's personal needs and/or life as a whole). And yes, I'm aware of what can be hosted -- picture editors, video editors, webtops, dhcpcd, emulators, and so on.

But the question is -- why I'd need all that if these stuff can be found on any ordinary PC out there? Even phones. Hell, even on a smart tv. That is like "trying to reinvent the wheel" for no necessary purpose other than "to look cool". There's also "because its fun", but is it really fun doing pretty much the same thing over and over again? There isn't a "learning gap" between these hosting options -- all of em have (pretty much) the same procedure to get things running.

With that said... I've been trying really, REALLY hard to host more stuff but I can't go beyond hosting (only) an adblocker.

I'm very new to Docker and Linux in general. My goal was to make my own server mainly for Plex. Now that I've got that running with the help of Dockstarter, I'm looking to branch out and I want to make sure my system is secure. I'm also running Ubuntu 'cause I for sure couldn't get this far with Terminal alone.

I use Private Internet Access as my VPN and I have it installed on my desktop environment. I've also been able to reroute my qBittorrent in a container through another container with Gluetun.

My prior setup is a Windows machine with PIA, kill switch enabled, qBit assigned to PIA adapter only.

So my question: What is more secure, PIA running on Ubuntu with a kill switch or tunneling each container through Gluetun?

I would like it to mirror my Windows setup but I couldn't figure out the network adapter situation with qBit.
