Description
We are still using mysql 8.0 (`8.0.33`) which has reached end of support last month after 8 years.
matomo has been complaining about that and asked us to upgrade (and switch to mariadb) for a long time.
Might be good to follow with #159
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the deployment configuration for MySQL 8.0.33 and read the related #159 issue. Trace how the database is used by Matomo, then define done as upgrading the database and switching it to MariaDB without losing the existing service or data.
