This all started when I wanted to connect my docker (not surprising) container to database. On the same port. I don't exactly remember what I did, but it got connected, but now I am not able to connect to the database on my local machine, it keeps throwing me CONNREFUSED on 27017
When I do a `brew services list` I was getting status of error.
This error was showing up for mongodb-community@4.4 too
BUT WAIT
When I opened Mongo Compass RIGHT NOW, it started working again. Agh! This life if indeed funny.
*I might think it was magic (which is one of the possibilities)* \
*But it also could be all the countless times I have*
* uninstalled mongodb-community
* reinstalled
* run `mongosh`
* run `brew services start/stop mongodb-community`
**It is funny, because it only worked for a while, now it stopped again.**

Saw this man on various mongo help I encountered.
