Describe the bug / actual behavior

The --storage-directory flag seems not to work or maybe I'm just running the wrong command. This is not a major issue but if you'd find the time to comment on this I'd be grateful. Thanks for this amazing app.

Expected behavior

Expected that ~/data will be used to store db and files (thumbs and archive)

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Go to pwd of shiori
Run command ./shiori server --storage-directory '~/data'
Data is stored in ~/.local/share/shiori

Screenshots

If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.
