Sadly I don't think I'm going to be able to continue to run #Soapbox. At least not integrated into #Pleroma (now #Akkoma).

Soapbox insists on having the #config be in the #database but when that's set Pleroma/Akkoma refuses to start.

Anyways, too tired right now to mess with it. Will have to look into it more tomorrow.

Fediverse please help me blow up this #opinion #config thread.
