The same Linux setup follows me across three PCs, without cloning a single drive
For a long time, I assumed keeping several Linux PCs consistent meant keeping the installations themselves consistent. That usually meant cloning drives, restoring full-system images, or repeating the same setup routine, hoping I remembered everything I’d changed last time. Eventually, I realized that wasn’t the part I cared about. I don’t need three identical Linux installations; I need the parts I actually interact with every day to follow me from one machine to the next.
