    I’m actually about to do this this weekend. I use Arch on my laptop and Pop on my gaming desktop. I’m going to switch my gaming desktop over to Arch. The only thing I’m going to keep is my docs folder. Everything else is getting nuked.

      When I set up mine, I created a separate /data mount point and drive for anything that I expect to keep between distros. The problem with keeping the home directory is that means all your personalized config files which may or may not apply to a new distro you switch to. I keep configs I want to keep in a git repo (like my i3 configs and scripts that I absolutely wouldn’t want to redo from scratch), data I want to keep in /data, and everything else can pretty much be wiped for a new distro on a whim without too much hassle.
