Switching to uBlue and back again: There are a few rough spots.

[garrett]

I completely ignored this very sensible notice:

Warning This is an experimental feature and should not be used in production, try it in a VM for a while, you have been warned!

...And rebased my computer.

The things I've noticed: It'll happily ­— by default — remove your Flatpaks and install its own. (This is a certainly a feature for clean systems, but the fact that it's not skippable is a bug, especially for people rebasing to check it out.)

Also: Switching back to stock Silverblue still had a lot of Ubuntu-ish defaults in dconf.

I fixed this by running:

sudo rm -f /etc/dconf/db/local
sudo dconf update

So, I'd suggest two things:

1. Provide a way to skip the Flatpak purging and installing.

2. Make a path to rebase back to Silverblue (or Kinoite, etc.). Ideally, it'd be automated (somehow... not sure how that would even work) or have it documented somewhere on how to undo things. (The above worked for me. I don't think anything else is necessary.)
