Dotfiles Matter
I've been working around this using tools built on top of git like [yadm](https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm) and relying on `ls-files` to list all my tracked dotfiles and their paths.
Still having everything in one place would make things much simpler. Great idea!

System settings that aren’t in System Settings
I wonder if the program i use to manage my dotfiles could help manage your scripts and extend your setup to all your desktops? Its called yadm (https://yadm.io/) it makes it so easy to have a laptop and a desktop or two.

The right way to keep config files synced across devices?
I really like that one but still prefer yadm because you can just edit your files as usual and then yadm add them wherever you are.

Just got a new M2 Pro after my 2016 became outdated. What are your first steps to setting up a new computer?
If you haven’t already, this is the time to install a tool like yadm and get your computer configuration into version control. Your command-line tools can be managed by yadm directly, your system settings can mostly be managed with a yadm bootstrap script that runs things like defaults write, and the software you install can be managed with a Brewfile that the yadm bootstrap script uses to install software with Homebrew. Don’t manually download Xcode, use xcodes to do it.

System 76 Linux script to set up a new PC including the personal profile and prefered software installs
I personally use YADM. It's basically a git repo on my home folder, that only tracks what I explicitly set. And you can setup bootstraps to do what you said, install a bunch of stuff or make custom changes. In it's essence, it's a set of bash/sh files that are executed sequentially when you launch the yadm bootstrap command.

Best Practices For Using BTRFS
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

Is there an app that can clear tmp/cache weekly by itself?

fstrim going through way too much of the disk every time it runs on boot
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.

What are some of your self made scripts that you're proud of
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.

Backup Software for BTRFS
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.
