I am currently trying to keep track of my config files in a repo to be able to get the configa back together easily if/when I change distro, but I am not sure if that’s the best way or if I should be using some tool to help me since I some programs keep preferences in other directories other then $HOME (at least I think so). Can you guys share with me your must used/trusted simple process for this?

Thank you and specially thanks to everyone who is being helpful in this community for the past few weeks, I’ve learned much and got some very useful tips from the comments in my posts and in other people posts too.

    separate nvmes for the root-fs and for my users home folder.

    configure /etc/fstab to point nvme to /home/username.

    Done! I can wipe and hop as much as I like, and everything’s just there.

    Tbh, i only hopped once, from Arch to Fedora and it was painless.
