 This should start `matrix-synapse.service` first, the main worker. After that
 all the workers should be started too. Check if the correct sockets appear and
 if there are any error messages in the logs.

+We may have a lot of workers, but if nginx doesn't forward traffic to the
+correct worker(s), it won't work. We're going to have to change nginx's
+configuration quite a bit.

+inspiration. This details a Docker installation, which we don't have, but the
+reasoning behind it applies to our configuration too.
