If the docker image maintainer has a github, open a ticket asking them to publish a Debian package

I see your point about trusting signed Debian packages, and I agree that’s ideal when possible. But Docker and APT serve very different purposes — one is for OS-level package management, the other for containerization and isolation. That’s actually where I got a bit confused by your answer — it felt like you were comparing tools with different goals (due to my limited knowledge). My intent isn’t just to install software, but to run it in a clean, reproducible, and isolated environment (maybe more than one in the same hosting machine). That’s why I’m considering building my own container from a minimal Debian base and installing everything via apt inside it, to preserve trust while still using containers responsibly! Does this makes sense for you? Thank you again for wasting your time to reply to my dumb messages

Containers have been around for decades. Look into lxc.
But for the best security, you want VMs. Look into proxmox.
