>Details on docker daily driver.
Short answer - Steam does not play well with WMs on my system. I was wondering if using docker would keep steam and games not related to steam more stable, secure, and private while the host end I could edit what I want in regards to the WM/DE. Your link to "Gui in docker containers" is actually extremely relevant to my interests.
Long answer - Steam does not like it when I change from mainline DE (XFCE, KDE, etc) to just a straight WM. Depending on the WM I switch to, it will cause some form of badness that makes me unable to play vidya. Because of this, I've been using XFCE, but otherwise I'd prefer to use as little overhead on the WM/DE side of things within reason, but I keep going back to XFCE.
Don't get me wrong, XFCE is a perfectly-good DE, and it's light relative to all the bullshit on the market, but I wanted to "use as little overhead as I can" with my DE/WM, and thus, thought of keeping steam, other vidya, browsing, and anything GUI-related in a docker container that contains all the shit that steam needs to function at best (within the limitations of valve's programming).
What I was expecting, is that I could set up a docker container using say, either ubuntu, linux mint, or steamOS's (as a last resort) files, set up steam, and theoretically, be able to play vidya with as little problems as possible on a linux setup, while retaining the low drag of having just a WM on the X side of things.
The link you posted has shed quite a bit of light on what I am to expect when it comes to docker containers. What I want is a balance between the security of my system and the convenience of just being able to get shit running in a few clicks. With my current system, VMs are either too slow, or too clunky for me, so I've been using jails otherwise.
From your link, it shows that using docker with the first method doesn't stop spying at all, and I'd need to look more up on VNC before I'd decide if it's worth going through the trouble setting it up.
Either way, thanks, and if this helps, I hope to know what you think on this.
