With all the news surrounding KDE Plasma 6, I’m wondering if there has been any interesting news about the Cinnamon DE. This is my preferred DE and what I’m currently using on Arch. Last we heard, Cinnamon moved to Version 6 on Linux Mint, and that version comes with an experimental Wayland setup. Since then, I haven’t seen or heard much about what’s going to happen next. Even the Linux Mint Blog doesn’t seem to indicate much.
Has anybody else heard anything lately about Cinnamon?
Linux Mint 22 is getting more attention as the Ubuntu LTS release nears. Typically it would be release in June / July. That’s when I’d expect to start hearing more about Cinnamon enhancements as that is where development efforts are focused in general, and they tend to release changes pretty close to larger Mint updates.
Cinnamon tends to not do much fanfare or buzz. Things are understated.
