Noble Knight Adventures. I think his name is William papillon?
William Papadin. Anyway, as long as I’m looking up his channel to share it, here’s my other favorite video of his.
That is a good one! I like the whole BWILA saga. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXGnUvwbPIg

Recovered a broken Kubuntu install I tried switching to that got broken on a missconfig’d update, half broken Linux install and it was still better and more featured than my W11… I am hopeful that I can finally make the switch permanent
I recommend making your /home a separate partition. It makes switching distros easier and also allows you to not encrypt your installation and only your own files, saving you from the headache in the case LUKS doesn’t work properly anymore.
How much storage space do you allocate for the OS?
Not OC - I read a recommendation of 20GB on reddit, only to get to the limit very fast and repartition. From my experience, 40GB is the magic number.
Honestly, I’d argue it depends on the use case. A lightweight distro meant for basic tasks will never consume as much as a gaming one. Factoring in that your snapshots will naturally grow over time (and thus disk space) will mean that repartitioning, and getting bigger hard drives, is always a thing.
I’d still just trust the general installation guide, if it offers automatic partition allocation. Just only do partitions for /boot, / and /home, I’ve never found much use for /var /log and such as a separate partition, at least as a home user.
And when in doubt: use LVM with ext4 for dynamic partitions. BTRFS has a similar feature, but it’s still experimental, and thus potentially unstable.
I allocated 75gb on my 1tb drive to Fedora and most of the rest (~900gb) to my /home. After over 2 years and a few upgrades (Workstation 37-42 IIRC) it’s sitting at 64.2% used.
The greybeards I learned from many moons ago liked to split /var, /bin, and /tmp from / as well as /home. I haven’t gone that far in some time though. As always YMMV.
I thought a bunch of config files and Biden folders and stuff are in /home. If I switch, will I not end up with a bunch of orphaned files from (in my case) Debian just cluttering the place up? I did the separate partition thing as is so often recommended.

At what point does an encrypted /home partition or LVM Volume or Drive get decrypted? Toward the end of the OS booting? I played with an encrypted LUKS single partition setup that asked me before the OS visibly booted.
What’s this from?
Nobleknight Adventures (I believe this is the entire short, but there are others on the channel.)
The waifu pillow freaking sent me. Haha.
Ahhh noble knight glad to have you aboard!
My average dream as linux user of 8 years.
Don’t worry, I’m getting my minusforum AI X1 in an hour and tonight is OpenSuse Thumbleweed (Sway WM) installation night!
I even have popcorn and sweets to pass the time during downloads and zypper installs, can’t wait 🤓
First I needed thigh high socks, and now an Anime pillow? What else do I need…
But I don’t want cookies. I actively avoid them! (but I did move over to Pop!_OS)
