konsave VS transfuse

so I picked EOS, with KDE Plasma because I found something called Konsave and they said KDE Plasma is the most customized DE, so I'm sold.

It is smooth sailing until now, I suggest this to save and replicate your config.

I'm using Konsave to backup my Plasma config.

It's a bit of a mess - I'm kind of hoping that Plasma 6 will bring back some structure into this, but I'm not getting my hopes too high. In the meantime there are a few tools to make this easier, such as konsave (it comes preconfigured for Plasma).

You can copy files manually or use something like konsave

There is konsave which was recommended by one of KDE developers on video, though I did not test it.

I use konsave to backup my KDE settings so I don't need to recreate my panes and widgets when they're lost (what happens 3 or 4 times per week). But after restoring a backup I need to log out. Is there a way to force a reload of Plasma without having all my apps closed? Can I maybe kill and restart some specific process?

I have tried loading it into the iso using Konsave(https://github.com/Prayag2/konsave), But it didn't work. :(

I haven't found any system (Linux distro, Mac, or Windows) that seems to really reliably do major version OS updates. I think I'm migrating to the viewpoint that it's better to just concentrate on having scripts/exported configs etc. that allow me to set up a new machine super quickly. Learned you can save your KDE desktop, in that vein - https://github.com/Prayag2/konsave.

I never said otherwise. And if i look what this script for KDE tries to backup I'd say this is far from what I'm looking at.

This script reveals locations pretty exactly: https://gitlab.com/cscs/transfuse/-/blob/master/transfuse.sh

How many times have you asked yourself "What a gorgeous customization! I wish I could make a backup and do the same thing on my other setups!" ? Well, I've done more thousand times! I know there are widgets like Plasma Customization Saver or scripts such as transfuse,konsave,kde-plasma-backup, etc. But nothing replaces native stuff! I would suggest creating an integrated option to backup and restore system settings (themes,icons,shortcuts,windows rules,arrangement of applications in panels,favorite apps, wallpapers, etc). You can even recognize the list of applications which can be installed and give the user the option to select which apps to be installed. That would be awesome!!

There some community attempts to solve this problem https://gitlab.com/cscs/transfuse and https://store.kde.org/p/1298955/
