a way to avoid this dilemma is to put /home on a partition separate from root. then you can always wipe the OS if you don't like it and your /home won't be touched, provided that you do not format the /home partition when you install the next OS, and then add it to your fstab while installing.

@burnitdown@beige.party @DeltaLima@social.la10cy.net True, I always install like that. Just hoped there was an approach that required even less effort. 🙂

@burnitdown@beige.party @DeltaLima@social.la10cy.net @soc@chaos.social Even in that case: backup /home First! (Been there... 😅😅😅 there is always the small error you will never make...🙃 )
