My friends and I all use Linux and often use each others laptops or desktops when we forget ours. Then I had the idea to install Linux on a USB so I could have all my stuff and use my system on any system. Which was cool but then I ran into the same problem of forgetting it sometimes. So my new idea (which I have no idea how I'd achieve) is to use something like MooseFS or ceph or some distributed filesystem for our home partition. So then we can just login and have all our files and customization's be there almost seamlessly. I don't know how or if it would work but it seems like it could. What do you think?

Perhaps VPNs between the various locations. I have not used WireGuard but I hear it is easy to set up. https://www.wireguard.com/
