One of the bad things about moving to Linux is my monthly backups.
Windows was pretty good at putting everything I needed in easy reach in the My Documents folder.
Linux programs don't always use one directory to put data files, and they're hidden away in various .var/.local/.config directories.
I THINK I got everything, but I'm terrified I'm going to miss something when I do my backups, and lose it. And I'd hate to do a 500GB monthly backup of my whole home directory every month just because I'm not sure where in my home directory different programs squirreled stuff away.
