good morning, i have a question: how can save a theme set in KDE?

There’s no built-in way to save a full KDE theme so that you can restore it later (which is what I think you’re asking for?) Someone did post a bash script to copy everything (don’t have the link sorry, but it was a LOT of files that needed to be copied), but again that’s not build into KDE, it’s a…

Transfuse - A script to backup and restore KDE Plasma configs Showcase

Optionally supports exporting and applying native and foreign package lists as well. While package lists are dependent on the pacman package manager all other functions should be agnostic - meaning you can create or apply backups from Arch to Ubuntu, from Ubuntu to CachyOS, CachyOS to CachyOS, or just about any other t…
