Blank Secrets result in errors during execution

Describe the Bug

When using secrets in the config.yaml file -- it seems that if they are not defined environment variables or on the command line then the "<>" string is passed into the various objects. This results in errors like long timeouts trying to connect to invalid urls for Notifiarr, MyAnimeList, or Gotify. It would be great if these errors could be handled more gracefully (behave as if the values were blank)
