Best practice for docker compose passwords? (lemmy.zip)

For example I have a docker compose stack with a service and a db.
How do you handle the passwords? Is it better to store them in a .env file or is there something different entirely?

Also do the passwords have to be strong if the db is only available to the service through the docker network?

Well my concern is not at home, my problem is with vps, pwd for database,api keys.. I have no idea how to approach this problem. I know that a good sysadmin can get everyting but at least i want to be more safe against average admins. For me the "trust" it is something over rated.
