    Should make a video explaining "when" and "when not to" encrypt your datasets. And the proper steps to make sure you will never bork your system if there is a failure at any point

    You’ll likely have to add those arguments each time you update, but worst case you can just do a rollback under the app settings. I’m not certain if this will be undated again until the true docker path forward is released. Then that is either going to be chaos or super easy, we’ll have to wait and see.
