Remove SQL Support
We need to remove SQL support, it adds no functionality that storage on disk doesn't, only making it more of a chore to retrieve information. Remove the database section in the config, if it's enabled, retrieve all the information first and save it in JSON. Make sure to make this very transparent to the user!
Is there a way to transition my data from database to localstorage?
Alhough i must admit im kinda suspicious on what you are doing if accesing a database is slower than using files.

Hopefully with 0.0.24 you shouldn't have to do anything, and it wasn't really slower to use the database system after I added the same data system behind both methods of saving (I guess the issue text is outdated). The reason I don't think we need it anymore is that it takes a lot of code to maintain and minor changes to format require extra layers of conversion code to ensure everything works smoothly. The newer method of saving will be file-based and be separated by region, similar to chunk data in the world folder, which I hope doesn't cause too many issues 😬
Is there a specific use case where having the data in a database would be better? I just feel like the kind of information we store doesn't necessarily need it (and there is a chance it hasn't been updated properly and I miss it, as I don't use the setting anywhere myself)
