I would like to distro hop to EndeavourOS, and it has been suggested that I use rclone to copy my home folder to an external SSD. Unfortunately, I don’t have an external SSD at the moment, but I do have a phone that has plenty of free space. Is it a good idea to back up my computer files to an Android phone? My gut says it’s not a very good idea, but I’m not sure why.
What about a cloud option instead? I do this for stuff that I consider important but don’t want to lose. Upload to a “backup” folder and then download once you set up your next distro?
Though I wouldn’t do this with anything terribly important like my social security number or taxes or something. But stuff like a book I’m working on, game projects I have, music library, etc., general stuff I don’t want to lose.
