I don't get my description if I restore my wallet with a seed (of course). Where is the folder located to restore the wallet? Electrums docs says "Go -> Location and type ~/.electrum". It's probably obvious but I dont know where to type that in Ubuntu...
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

I am in Windows now and I am about go sleeping but it's super easy. Open the Computer tab and go to the long box and copy paste ~/.electrum there.

In the picture below I find in google just to give you an example where you should type it.

It's an hidden folder, with ubuntu you open the file manager, go to your home folder and press CTRL+H to show hidden directories and files.

If you are restoring the wallet from the seed words, I don't think you should need to mess with the Electrum files in this folder. You can just create a new wallet and restore from seed and it should do the rest. You would only need to do this to restore contacts and labels if these are something you need.

Thanks for answers!
First of all I could't find the 'location bar'. However, I did notice it when I had it in full screen. Because I hoovered the 'top bar' so that 'Go' appeard. And good suggestion to export and import the description.
