Problems related to permissions for non-root users and Docker volumes

I'm using Docker to set up isolated development environments.So I configured the dockerfile to create a non-root user. (Using the official Ubuntu image as a base)

I created a volume for file management, but a permission problem occurred.

reviewed several solutions for this. :

1. chmod 777 -R volume (this is a stupid method but effective)
2. Match with the same PID/GID as the user on the host (I think this method works fine)

I wanted to apply solution number 2, but the problem was as follows.

1. user on the host is 1000:1000 (UID:GID).
2. user on the guest is 1001:1001(UID:GID).
3. In the guest, 1000:1000 is already in use by a user named "ubuntu".

However, it does not seem desirable to modify the external environment to use Docker. So, I decided not to create a user with 1001:1001.

The user named “ubuntu” is an account that has already been created as shown below.

What I want to know:

1. What does the user “ubuntu” exist for?
2. Can I use “ubuntu” or replace it with another account?
3. If "ubuntu" is for special purposes, I would like to create a GID to access the volume and use umask. If there is a better solution, please share it.

I am looking for a flexible and generalized method for this problem that is not affected by the external environment.
