If we can't help you with your existing installation, we can guide you through this process. The basic idea is that because almost all the interesting data is in your database or /etc/mailman3, you can just plug in the new Mailman system, point things at the right places (probably the file system layout will change so you'll need to change some things in mailman.cfg, settings.py, and some related systems like logrotate and systemd).
Usually I avoid installing software directly as there is more maintenance effort than having installed it from OS-packages.
In this case I see that I have permanently troubles with this software (OS-packages) so your suggestion is worth to consider.
Is there a possibility to export all members including real names. It doesn't work with Postorius, yet, is there another possibility? If I have my user data exported, I could delete everything and start from scratch. Maybe this is the most reasonable ...
