I have been working on a Saas product, it's a 

. I decided to use Nextjs for its frontend. 

I wanted to protect some routes like the dashboard unlike SPA React where you can write up a quick HOC and wrap your component and redirect if the token in local storage or wherever you are saving has expired, not valid or non-existent redirects to login to generate a new one. 

you can do the same in Next but I did not want that approach.

So I recently changed laptops, from being a 

user for the past 2.5 years. I was running Parrot during that time, great os by the way if you are into cyber security stuff or just another full-stack developer like me.

I switch over to Mac, and all my ssh keys were in my previous laptop, they access all of my servers in Digital Ocean and AWS, to cloning and pushing to Github and so much more. I could not convince myself to update all servers with the new ssh keys and I had some issues with Github SSH cloning. So here are the steps I took, enabling me to move all my keys to my new laptop.

Copy over the ssh keys from your old laptop to the new one, they should be located in the 

folder. You can use a flash drive or a cloud platform, whatever works for you.

Paste the files in your new laptop in the same directory.

If you do that you will get an error like this:
