copying .local/share to new device
When preparing to move to a new SFOS device, I noticed a mix of files under the ~nemo/.local/share directory. Some seems to come straight from the system (e.g. dbus-1), some from SFOS (e.g. jolla-mail), some from the installed apps (harbour-<appname>) plus other directories used by the apps (e.g. Foil Pics saves its keys under foil).
Is there some rules or best practices on what should and what should not be copied over to the new device, in order to preserve the most of the settings/contents, and that is not already part of the SFOS backup app?
