“Unfortunately, in attempting to do so, we erroneously deleted the data directory of the primary on db-01.”

I don't even really plan to use any bridges, as I understand it those are for if you want to pass messages from other services through your matrix server. I would rather keep those separate personally, even though I understand certain benefits, including having all your messaging in one application instead of numerous.

When a bridge works like the discord and the Signal and WhatsApp ones it's amazing not to need to log in to those services anymore just to see if someone wrote something to you.

Sadly most of the bridges are either broken like the Facebook one or straight out don't work like she KakaoTalk and WeeChat ones because the services remove capabilities which before made it possible in a hacky way.
