Is there a way to move distro without loosing data in /home? I am currently running Pop OS and want to move to Nix OS while keeping the data. Normally I could use an external hard drive or my server, but most of my equipment is in storage at the moment. Current partition setup is using LUKS and LVM with ext4. I am guessing there is a way to manipulate the LVM to make it work by adding another partition and installing into it.

I know this is probably a convoluted idea. I am trying to avoid spending money an another external drive.

Yes, B-Tree File System. But Better FS is the dapper Winnie the Poo pronounciation

Why not Butter FS?

Also what's it better than? Than ZFS? Not really. Than BCacheFS? Maybe right now but probably not for long.
