Yeah, I think what went wrong and now everything is installed through Docker.

Docker feels like a huge security problem to me.

Why?

Docker makes everything so much easier

I know, but your security then depends on the package maintainer to keep the image up to date

Am officially maintained Docker image is no less a security concern than an officially maintained apt repo. Depending on how you set up a container stack it can even be more secure. An attacker gaining root access to a container that you've given extremely selective access to the host machine is far better than them gaining root access to your actual system.
