Is it possible to reinstall Linux (or distro hop) without losing my Dropbox install? Could I move the Dropbox install to my home folder so it survives the OS install?

It is; I want to reinstall my OS without losing my Dropbox install
It’s possible if you configure your
/home/to use a separate partition. But you would have to do that in advance. Even in that case you’d have to reinstall it but the nice thing about it is you won’t have to reconfigure anything. It will be able to get all your previous settings from your home dir.You could backup your home dir before reinstalling then copy it over after for the same effect.
