Can TimeMachine backups taken with Sequoia be restored with Sonoma?

[VitoBotta]

I am wondering just in case I run into some main issues affecting my workflow and want to switch back to Sonoma. Would it be possible to restore the data from a TimeMachine backup taken with Sequoia? Thanks

My guess would be No.

Assuming you only need your data, I'd recommend backing up your Documents directory regularly.

If you want a backup that you WILL be able "to go back to" with a "downgrade", create it with either SuperDuper or CarbonCopyCloner instead.

I don't think tm will work.

I just purchased Carbon Copy Cloner and was asking a related question about it here
