python replit database throwing typeError

I was trying to make functions to save, get, and get all for the Replit Python database. It doesn’t work and I can’t find out why.

Get all function:

def loadAll(user):
    if user in db.keys():
        return db[user]
    if user not in db.keys():
        db[user] = {}
        return db[user]

It throws an error at return db[user].

This is the code that fires the function (I’m using the discord.py commands extension.):

@bot.command(name = "getMyData")
async def getUserData(ctx):
    await ctx.send(ctx.author)
    await ctx.send(loadAll(ctx.author))

The error message says:
TypeError: quote_from_bytes() expected bytes
