    How to do a clean install and migrate some data

    I want to do a clean install of Monterey from Big Sur but I also want to migrate some data rather than starting from scratch. The data that I want to migrate are: Safari history. iMessages. Music (especially play count for tracks). That's all. Everything else can start from scratch.
