setting user:root in 1.3, with docker rootless mode

[metrolan]

Hi!.
Just asking for your opinions about my setup.
I've been using FBquantum for a while, with docker in rootless mode.
Updated to 1.3 just today, and I get a permission access error to the database.
So I changed my docker-compose.yml to set user as root: user: "0:0". This is how its looks:

services:
  filebrowser:
    volumes:
      - /media/externo/users:/folder
      - ./data:/home/filebrowser/data
      - ./cache:/tmp/filebrowser
    ports:
      - 8020:80
    image: gtstef/filebrowser:stable
    restart: unless-stopped
    user: "0:0"

I'm not sure if this is the correct way, or the secure way to do this.
Also, I have exposed FBQ to the Internet, behind nginx. I wonder if my workaround is a secure one.

Greetings

yeah that works just fine, or user: root.

As for how to expose it, behind a reverse proxy is indeed a great way. I would also recommend using 2fa or passkey if you are a password user for added security. Or setting password length requirements for users. Or use some other more secure authentication method.
