I’m guessing yes, that you have to make a back up of all your files etc. But I figured I’d ask anyway, just in case.

To anyone who’s done it, how do you prepare when you change distro?

    I backup my home folder (home/UserName/) and if swapping to a new “family” of linuxes (like from a debian-based one to an arch based one) note down the names of any packages i definitely want to keep using and checking if the new one has it in their repos
