Earlier this year, I built a new PC and it’s running Ubuntu. I’ve been installing various apps and configuring them since then. Now, I realize I don’t have any way of knowing what I would want to reinstall, if I (for instance) lost this drive somehow.

How do you keep track of what you’ve installed/ your favorite apps?

Separately, how can I backup the configurations I’m using right now.

Thanks!

    Yes, my concern with this is that I have Steam installed and its games are many many GBs. If I do a backup I’ll have to exclude that folder. I’ll try this and see how it goes. Thanks!
