I can never remember this, so for my future self, if you change your compose.yaml file, and then only docker compose restart, those changes will not be picked up. You must docker compose stop && docker compose up -d instead.

If you make changes to your compose.yml configuration, these changes are not reflected after running this command. For example, changes to environment variables (which are added after a container is built, but before the container's command is executed) are not updated after restarting.
