Anyone shall use linux, even kids and elderly, lazy and uneducated people. There has to be a cloud that is easy to setup for a simple backup like firefox sync for the browser.

Whoops

Backup apps with e.g. this https://www.nixtutor.com/linux/keep-a-backup-of-installed-packages/ and this https://itsfoss.com/back-up-restore-flatpak-apps/ and borg/pika/deja dup/kopia for files. Let’s add appimages, snaps and brew and containers/distrobox.

The only thing that is missing is an all in one solution that puts everything together. And a cloud where you can restore it.

Not on my instance fosstodon.org

Nice, thx!

I could see the profile but unfortunately no post from mastodon, lemmy and pixelfed.

wanderer is built on the ActivityPub protocol, meaning your instance can connect with others to share trails, profiles, and updates. Follow users across the network, discover new trails from different communities, and interact seamlessly with other federated platforms like Mastodon — all without relying on a central server.

Is there an example account that I can follow from lemmy or mastodon? can you connect your mastodon to your wanderer account?

Your right. The rest of the comment still holds. Backup and restore.

Edit: I have to sanitise the final script and remove all the wrong commands afterwards 🤔

Neither do native and flatpak vscode work the same way. It’s about that OP decides it, not the user.

It looks great but I don’t like it.

You decide that firefox gets installed via apt and not flatpak. Why?

This aims at someone who already has a system and wants to have some reproducible thing for a new system.

Back the fuck up and restore from backup.

This also includes take asnapshot of flatpak apps and simply reinstall all of them on the new system.

Yes, there is a lot of improvement to automatically do all this. But not with another solution. Just use dotfiles. Dotfiles and a cloud sync thing.

Sorry to hear that!

Should you be using nextcloud aio if you use tunnels?

I use https://hub.docker.com/_/nextcloud/#running-this-image-with-docker-compose

It works like a charme.

Try nextcloud with docker/podman. Take a backup/copy right before upgrading, upgrade, if it fails remove the upgrade and wait another week/month before upgrading or fix it. In the meanwhile, you can simply use the version that you have not yet updated.

I’ve had no problem in years

Nothing in Flatpak stipulates that it only supports GUI applications.

In fact the tutorial offers to create a CLI application:
