@crowgirl@hachyderm.io Putting the comment I just put there here as well: I wrote up a whole thing about "yeah try the file command on the partition" before realizing... wait, it's mounted? Check out the contents of that partition, /media/kubuntu/kubuntu_2404. It might be home encryption with, um, ecryptfs? I think it's called? It's file-based encryption, your files stored as encrypted files instead of a whole encrypted block device.

    @crowgirl@hachyderm.io You can install ecryptfs tools from the ecryptfs-utils package (sudo apt install ecryptfs-utils). This works in the live desktop, until you reboot (which resets you to a clean slate).
