I’m using Fedora Kinoite since a while, and I really like it. There’s just one thing I don’t understand, and have a hard time finding an answer to.
What happens in my home directory if I rebase to Silverblue? Like, Gnome and its apps comes with a lot of config files. If I then roll back to Kinoite, will all those files and folders still be there? How can I prevent this cluttering of files and folders that I don’t want to keep? I guess the easy answer would be to create a new user and then delete that home directory after rolling back, but I’m wondering if something else will happen. Thank you!
That is what I feared. Using another user is a solution but it feels inelegant. I wish there were some middle ground, like being able to pin the home folder or something. I’ll take a look at your github!
I had another idea, collect the locations (you can create a PR just listing them commented out) and then move the files to
~/.config/kdeand hardlink (ln -S) them to the used locations.Iconsets and maybe themes are also problematic and not directly KDE related, but these are the ones that cause compatibility issues.
I would also like to separate it between core Plasma (what Kinoite has installed) and the full KDE suite, and I would focus on core Plasma first.
