awesome-dotfiles VS Dotfiles.system

There are lots of good resources out there on the topic, such as GitHub's collection of tutorials and inspiration and the awesome-dotfiles repo with lots of resources.

If you dont like how stow organizes your files, you could try a different dot file manager. There are plenty to chose from

Create a dotfiles project on github to maintain your files.

Set up a dotfiles project and check it out in the VM.

You can find many tools on GitHub (or elsewhere) to bootstrap your Dotfiles. Some people choose to rely on Ansible, others on some tools you have to install. But how to install a tool that install the tools? Manual installation is not an option. It's like a chicken-egg problem.

You might want check out some of the more popular mac-specific dotfiles like those from mathiasbynens. Here is a good list of good repos. I must must admit that I have not yet gone this route (been meaning to), but one potential advantage is that you have multiple people working on / debugging a reproducible configuration.

Probably using BTRBK. I'm using it for some time now, and it never failed on me. Here are my BTRBK config files for it: https://github.com/rizzini/Dotfiles.system/tree/master/etc/btrbk

My full refind.conf for better visualization.

At least here, root's cron jobs are stored at /var/spool/cron/root. https://github.com/rizzini/Dotfiles.system/blob/master/var/spool/cron/root

PKG_subvol.conf - Clean every 3 days.

Good catch. You really, really should change that behavior. It's not healthy for your SSD. Do it manually or even better, use continuous TRIM setting the discard flag on your fstab like this.

Anbox script bound to META + A keys. I don't need to open some third-party software, like Waydroid's case, so I start it directly using a Systemd service unit configuration file. Besides that unit file, I made a simple script that opens Anbox and closes it if I run the script again. Script. anbox.service file.

BTRBK on the other hand, it's super flexible and holds lots of possibilities. You can, for example, automatically copy the snapshots to another storage device. You can do that even though SSH if you're into that. Here you can find how I set it up on my environment for my ROOT and HOME subvolumes.
