Don't be me.

I decided to update last night at midnight. When it finished updating, it asked me to setup my new smart home. I panicked as I thought I'd lost all my settings and I was rushing through as it was late, so I just created a new account and started adding all my stuff back..

Two hours later and after losing the settings twice more, I'd had enough for the night so I went to bed, pissed off at myself for creating problems..

I'm lying in bed and suddenly I have a brainwave that I just need to add the file path to the configuration back into the docker container and all will be well. Did that in two minutes this morning. Don't be me, and don't do shit when you're tired. Lesson learned ๐Ÿ™„
