### Troubleshooting

- **Emojis**: MySQL doesn't support emojis out of the box, so if you're syncing to nextcloud and getting Error code 500 from nextcloud, check the nextcloud log for SQL errors and [proceed as explained in the nextcloud docs if you get charset errors](https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/stable/admin_manual/configuration_database/mysql_4byte_support.html).
