Commands
There are a number of commands to manage your relay's database and config. You can add --help to
any category or command to get help on that specific option (ex. activityrelay inbox --help).
Note: activityrelay is only available via pip or pipx if ~/.local/bin is in $PATH. If not,
use python3 -m relay if installed via pip or ~/.local/bin/activityrelay if installed via pipx.
