I'm interested in the client-side chat encryption feature from PR #19946, which is blocked by this DB migration.
For my use case (hosting Open WebUI for others), E2E encryption is important so that as a host I cannot access users' conversations.
Is there any update on the status of this migration?
Thanks for the great work on Open WebUI!
