From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Have you tried timeshift? It's pretty easy, and I really like it. I use timeshift to make restore points for my OS and borg for doing data backups.
Yeah I actually use time shift on my main system but my boot/efi is fat32 so it doesn't get restored during snapshot rollback resulting in failed boot if kernel was changed .I guess there is a few complicated solutions to that. Also on fedora time shift is not supported anymore (?)
