Earlier this year, I built a new PC and it’s running Ubuntu. I’ve been installing various apps and configuring them since then. Now, I realize I don’t have any way of knowing what I would want to reinstall, if I (for instance) lost this drive somehow.

How do you keep track of what you’ve installed/ your favorite apps?

Separately, how can I backup the configurations I’m using right now.

Thanks!

    I screw around with self hosting and homelab stuff that it was an interesting thing to learn at a certain point.

    I don’t think I noticed which c this was in. For a regular user it’s probably not worth the effort.
