Allow all applications to access Dropbox or Google Drive files
I am using mackup to sync application preferences between devices over Dropbox. Now if any application with synced preferences is started I will get a question if given application is allowed to access Dropbox files (because it tries to access its preferences). Examples below.

Clone user settings/preferences for Personal and Work accounts on same mac
Hello there! I use https://github.com/lra/mackup Not sure if its the BEST but it works well for me. * What does it do - Back ups your application settings in a safe directory (e.g. Dropbox) - Syncs your application settings among all your workstations - Restores your configuration on any fresh install in one command line

The best Mac Apps to unlock your max potential (recommended by users of r/MacOs )
Yeah, I went through a similar process when I finally upgraded my MBP after 8 years on a 2013 MBP. In light of the transition from Intel to Apple Silicon, I decided to do some spring cleaning with a fresh install. I ended up curating my own setup/bootstrap scripts as well as using mackup to backup and sync my dotfiles and app configs.

Sync settings
I use Mackup which syncs a many app settings including Raycast to your choice of location.

Dotfiles Management
I moved away from using a dotfiles repo a few years ago because I kept forgetting to add/commit files as I changed them.
Instead I use mackup[0] which automatically manages symlinks to your Dropbox/Drive/Share and has support for a huge amount of software by default. You can also manually add “extra” files you wish to track if you like.

Trying to learn Homebrew-macOS /usr/local layout --for purpose of--> migrating /usr/local from one Macbook to another
Brew bundle will install fresh copies of your package list. If you have any configuration files that you want to reuse, you’d have to transfer those separately. This might help https://github.com/lra/mackup

Integrated backup/restore system
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!!
- You can now save your Plasma configuration in an instant!

Planning on upgrading my production Kubuntu to latest version. How do I backup kde settings?
A cleaner solution would be to use https://github.com/rubenaleman/kde-plasma-backup but I can't guarantee anything as I have not personally used it yet. Looking at the script itself shows where to find many if not all of the important config locations though.
What are some alternatives?
chezmoi - Manage your dotfiles across multiple diverse machines, securely.
konsave - A command line program written in Python to let you backup your dotfiles and switch to other ones in an instant. Works out-of-the box on KDE Plasma!
macprefs - Backup and Restore your Mac System and App Preferences (e.g. defaults write)
transfuse
desktop - Focus on what matters instead of fighting with Git.
yadm - Yet Another Dotfiles Manager
