I don't even know how-to, or what it truly means to encrypt, so I don't have to worry about that. And I just love hearing the other parts. Thanks

oh, no problem, at least I know now. Thanks!

At least it's somewhat narrowed down, I'll try the app, thanks!

wonderful, thank you for the info. I'll have to sleep on this tho.

And if I make a user with the same username on the other system, it'll just.. connect?

Huh, does everything store it's configs in ~/.config ? Is it some unwritten rule? That'd make life so much easier.

tbh I bearly have experience in any distro, but Arch didn't pose that much of a challange. I might switch, but I really don't see the advantage I'd get. Maybe to Debian, I used it's terminal. But, great Idea to mess around in VMs first!

Can you explain this step:

and restore your OS settings by restoring it to a new install.

Wait, so.. I can copy everything as-is except /boot ?

You're not the only one who mentioned NixOS. But you warned me about the quality. Thank you.

Also, I'd really not want to switch of my current system. I already have data, configs and everything. I probably could re-do it in days, but seems like a lot of struggle to use a worse distro in the other 99% of the time when I'm not thinking about moving configs to my laptop.

That takes stress off of my back. But does not solve the problem, that I'd like an identically configured portable system (my laptop). :/

I do have live USBs laying around, thanks for the tip.

Not a bad Idea, if I knew where all the configs and everything are, which I don't.

What your saying is that I can dd / ?

that's very alien to me.

Analyzing your comment in a different light. What your saying is if I copy my /home (someone said /etc too) over to my laptop, and back it up as well, I'm golden?

would different hostnames and usernames make a problem? As far as my knowledge goes it won't as long as I also bring /etc over, but I have no Idea if /etc is connected to something deeper or not.

And also also, might seem like a dumb question but I had to edit a file to automount my other disks at startup, won't it like break everything if my system only gets /home after boot or something? Caz I have enought free space to copy over my existing /home, delete it, partition, and mount it back. What'd the benefits and dangers be?

This is basically the reason why I wanted to ask early. Two problems.

Already kinda late.. And, idk how to configurate Firefox addons from the terminal. Even if I did, there're a bunch of other apps too. I'd need to do so much research.

This sounds scary, but an option! I'll put it at the end of the list, thanks!

friends used it, tryied it, stuck with it. But wdym Windows user logic? What do I do when I brick something?

I finally got around to checking the offers out, I'll use Photon. Thank you for this collection.

tbh, I'm just mad about it all. Still, points taken, should just stfu.
