If you use the wifi for your internet connection then when the pi restarts, it tries to use the same thing for the local access point and then that stops the local access point from coming up.

after running the commands you had sent me on my raspberry pi; it disconnected from the router and shut down (you witnessed this on the jitsi call). I then plugged it out and back in and the Bibliotecha hotspot showed up for a brief moment on our devices but then disappeared :(. X's Pi, which was set up by connecting it to wifi through the desktop GUI and running the install script, did not show a hotspot when it rebooted. Then again, it was still connected to the wifi router once it rebooted. Maybe we should all revert back to ethernet cables. I hope this information can be helpful.

Solution for now is to just place a large warning in the documentation about this: https://manual.bibliotecha.info/#prerequisites. Basically, don't use the Wifi connection during installation. Although I've got a mail from someone who said it worked for them but they didn't know why ;)
