Anyone else having issue with the unavoidable replit database upgrade on launch

2 of my apps have been mapped to the wrong dev Db - ( Db’s that are from other unrelated apps which I would have epected were logically separate \>?)

I have one app I’m too scared to open as it does not have a prod published version to scrape - Any advice ?
