@all - if you have precious data, do NOT install a beta release. Wait until it is released as final.

It looks like you have Breeze Dark set. I checked and OOTB it's fine.

Can you go to Tools> Options > LibreOffice - View > Icon style to "Automatic (Colibre)
Confirmed that I have the Breeze Dark, but I didn't change it. That was how it was. I'll try the change tomorrow - I'm back in MX-19 for today because I don't have my backup routines set in MX-21 yet.

Megasync won't install from MX Package Installer, says "megasync : Depends: libraw19 (>= 0.16.0) but it is not installable". Downloaded the deb file for Debian testing from Mega.nz, open with gdebi which says it will install dependencies, but it just bombs out with no error. Tried installing with dpkg, again complains about dependencies, but apt-get -f install fixed it. Version 4.5.3 now running OK.

No alias for python - it's good that python3 is the default now, but I've struggled to remember to type python3 rather than just python for years!

There is an entry in the Whisker menu - conky - that starts a second basic Conky on the top-left of the screen. Is that by accident? If intentional, what is its purpose?

ARandR opens with the menu bar squashed, so you can't close it.

... Tried again MX-21 beta 1, and the .iso is fast to decompress and to load on VM (faster than MX19) ... is this iso is compressed with zstd?
