Personally I don't use a separate
/homepartition. Software versions can differ significantly between distros and this has plenty of potential to effectively fuck up your system anyhow*.I use a separate data partition instead, and hook it into my home with symlinks. Pictures, Documents, Videos etc. - these are usually those that take the most disk space anyhow, by a large margin.
