Yeah, this is totally on me lol. There were a bunch of ways I could have prevented this (Regular Backups, Backing Up Everything before messing around with a Live USB, etc). I guess it’s one of those lessons I had to learn the hard way. I’ve got a setup now where I have my desktop backup my Home Directory to a SSD with Pika Backup, and I’ve got a Enclosure for a HDD on the way too just to be safe
