I guess it depends on your preferences, docker is probably easier to manage (updating, restarting etc..) than native. I run bitcoind native and some services using it in docker containers.

Nix Bitcoin is also a really cool concept https://nixbitcoin.org/

like some super easy and steady apps as bitcoind in native and some frequently maintained ones in docker? is this nix a kind of bunched docker for all mentioned apps?
