OK I found it. Still a bit confusd about this message on install page tho:
Docker on Windows works differently than it does on Linux; it runs Docker inside of a stripped-down Linux VM. Volume mounts are exposed to Docker inside this VM via SMB mounts. While this is fine for media, it is unacceptable for the /app/config directory because SMB does not support file locking. This will eventually corrupt your database, which can lead to slow behavior and crashes.
If you must run Docker on Windows, you should put the /app/config directory mount inside the VM and not on the Windows host. (This also applies to other containers with SQLite databases.)
Named volumes, like in the example commands above, are automatically mounted inside the VM. Therefore the warning on the setup about the /app/config folder being incorrectly mounted page should be ignored.
