Maybe download the installers for Fedora & Tumbleweed and boot to the USB Drive you install the .iso file on to 'try' a distro first instead of destroying you current setup for the totally unknown world of linux.

It runs inside a Docker container and backs up both my data as well as configurations like my docker compose file and smb.conf. Off site storage was Backblaze B2, but I moved to Hetzner.
