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!

    just a small correction, /etc does get snapshotted when upgrades happen and will roll back along with everything else. you are correct though that home does not get snapshotted and is fully mutable.
