Docker for SABnzbd necessary? (self.usenet)

Hi folks sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm fairly new to Usenet and although I have it all set up, I saw some instructions to use a docker to run SABnzbd in?

I've been using it for about a month without one, but I'm worried there might be adding security or privacy risk?

Definitely not necessary. A lot of use cases for SABnzbd are for some sort of media server or NAS, which is where docker comes in handy. If you don't already have a docker setup, and don't intend to have one in the future, running a single app as a container probably isn't going to be necessary. There are other considerations of course, but as far as security goes, as long as you're connecting via SSL and/or VPN, you should be good.
