When one spend enough time using window managers configuration files can pile up fast… How do you keep them safe?
- Do you copy to an external drive?
- Do you upload to a cloud service?
- Do you have a dedicated git repository?

dood, i backup all my files.
you can’t just backup your dotfiles. you should at least backup your non-distro files, too. ideally the whole system, so you can quickly restore when something really bad happens.
i backup to external drives (usb thumbdrive and external HD) and then keep the backups in other rooms. some encrypted, very important files i sync additionally to a cloud provider, in case the whole appartment burns down or so while I’m out.
