The entire home folder could probably be kept for the new install if there's enough space to back it up
okay, situation report:
My Fedora install is no longer bootable
My files are, however, still intact
i have 2 EFI partitions for some reason
my diagnosis: i fucked up my EFI partition somehow and that is why grub is throwing a tantrum
is it possible to fix a broken EFI partition?

Autistic brain really is like, "you have to overexplain so there is absolutely zero chance for misinterpretation"
“The old magic persists thanks to it’s unfathomable power.”
No, the old magic persists because the new magic can’t run the legacy spells I need to do my job, and keeps trying to install spirits I don’t want or need onto my orb.
ppl be like "no i'm on windows because it works. it doesn't break like linux does" and then i look at my mom's laptop and it won't update because of error 0x800703f1 and it turns out the solution is downloading a sketchy exe and a sketchy powershell script, copying a random file, running stuff on it, backing up stuff in system32, and replacing it with what you got from running the sketchy programs. and then you get a different error. and windows update is like "uh maybe reinstall the os idk lol"
i love when my partner is vocal. like yeah, the moans and grunts are amazing, but dirty talking?? telling me to take your cock?? whispering all the dirty things your thinking about? all the praising and commands?? why would you hold that back
The trick is to change your root mount to use the snapshot subvolume instead
btrfs tip for y'all: use subvolumes. restoring a snapshot of a subvolume is as simple as duplicating the snapshot as readwrite, deleting/moving the old subvolume and renaming the copy to the subvolume's name
restoring a snapshot of the root subvolume is. harder
The struggle is real
