I’m also thinking a lot about the best way to move everything from one computer to another if one day I buy a new computer.

I thought I had found a way with Clonezilla, but after trying to clone my Surface Go 1 to an old laptop I had, it didn’t work. Could be because I hadn’t removed the surface specific kernel. But now I don’t feel safe anymore.

Some people are suggesting to copy my home folder which I did, but I’m not sure it would fit my needs.

Basically, my files are taken care of with cloud storage (kDrive by the way), but I’d like to keep the way all my programs and extensions are setup.

So I ain’t sure I was a big help😅

I hope one day we’ll just have some program to prepare an archive to unpack for your next system to make the transition seamlessly. Or just putting the computer side by side and sending everything wirelessly.

I feel like we need this with all the personalization we can have on Linux.
