Thank you, that's a valid concern.
Reusing your /home is exactly the kind of thing having a separate mount point for it is for. I've done it without issue. Lately i haven't distro hopped, but back in the day, even between distros, but I don't recommend that. Some apps may balk at a config built for a different version, which would require you to find and delete the offending config.
I'm curious as to your experience and what led you to recommend against it.
7zip. Just compress the important files to an external HD. Your c:\users\user and if there's files you saved elsewhere that you don't want to lose, those.
It's got to be dead simple to create and restore. If you do have an incremental backup solution in place, by all means use it. But if not, don't go trying it now.
I don't disagree with you, but Fireship's videos are short and to the point.
I do it all the time. Gparted works like a charm. I always do backups first, but never needed.
Mine worked out of the box on mint. Like, it detected the network HP shitbox and I could print, no user intervention. I was floored.
"Welcome to Costco. I love you."
You almost blew my mind out there.
AGPL and GPL v3 are explicitly compatible, IIRC. You can run into some trouble with v2.
