minus-squareprole@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·edit-22 days agoTimeShift was probably one of the most important teaching aides I had when I first started on Linux. I’ve been on Bazzite for a couple years now, so I have no need for it anymore. But I learned sooooo much by breaking my EndeavourOS install and then rolling back. I’ve only had to rollback with Bazzite once so far (it’s hard to break), and it was literally just one rpm-ostree command. Love it.
