I am thinking about using distrobox. Since I am on debian I wont need it to install software I could otherwise not install. But I have some apps that require weired install scripts and I am thinking about using it as a security measurement. Do you think that is a good idea? Does that idea makes sense?

    I recommend you doing so, but not as a security measure, more of so as a “keeping everything organised”-measure.

    I like to keep my host OS clean and install everything containerised

      Yeah. The idea of random stuff nesting into my pc where I will never find it again is also a big pain. That said using distroboy would make it much cleaner I guess.
