Synapse fails to start due to potential postgre DB issues about matrix-docker-ansible-deploy HOT 4 OPEN

You're not telling us how you "tried to get OIDC working" - what did you do to end up in this situation? Perhaps you upgraded Synapse and then trying to switch to an older version?

Also, this issue is probably more suitable for the Synapse repository. I suppose that whatever you did is not really related to the Ansible way of setting up things, but rather to a problem with Synapse.. Or to you trying to do something that's not meant to be supported here or upstream (downgrading Synapse).

@spantaleev I added the authentik oidc: settings that was recommended in the Matrix chatroom for this project. But I could not get it to work, so i played around a bit with the settings (reran setup-all multiple times to try different oidc config)

I did not downgrade synapse in any way

So you recommendation is to turn to the synapse project instead?

so I am recommended to nuke the installation and start over again, is this the recommended steps for uninstalling and starting over from scratch?

Yes. If your setup had federated, you may also consider saving your signing key (see /matrix/synapse/config).

Preserving /matrix/traefik/ssl/acme.json (I may be misremembering the exact path to the acme.json file) may also prevent unnecessarily retrieving new SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt. You haven't obtained too many in too short a time though, so you're unlikely hit their rate limits, so you may simply nuke this too and get new certificates.
