Should've just managed your recipes with git and text files.

You know I'm starting to think that is the better route to go with. I use an app called Mealie but it was on my media server and it got completely nuked when my media server crashed and it was the last thing I had to restore.
And for whatever reason Postgres does not want to restore the database. It recognizes it's there. The permission should be all correct. But Mealie is still not recognizing the database.
I have other backups, so not all is lost, but I was hoping this would just be simple, and of course it's not. 🤣

I feel like SQL would only be needed for applications that need to scale to millions of users in this day and age. But everyone programs with what they know and I get I. SQL is powerful.
Yeah, like I understand why this application has a database. It's supposed to be multi-user Have groups and be able to sort tags and things like that. And I set it up for a bunch of people to be able to use it, but I'm really the only one who makes heavy use of it. So probably, especially after this clusterfuck, I might just go to something like Git with markdown or something.
Might not look as pretty, but it will be much easier to use. At least for me. And it won't have the potential to fuck up like this.
Despite dealing with databases almost every day, I still run into clusterfucks like this.
