This is what I get when I click on the "Wastebin" (UK English) plasmoid from the panel. I don't know whether it works correctly in US English where it's called Trash.
The right click option to empty the bin works, and it can be accessed via Dolphin. I wonder whether this is because it's faulty or due to a problem with the translation. I suspect it may be a KDE error rather than an MX error though.

Rubbish!
I don't think it's translation. However, I cannot replicate it, I don't see that in Live environment did a fresh install and still don't see it. trash:/ is what it shows for me and it works.
Do you see a ~/.local/share/Trash folder? If not can you create and try again?

KDE settings consistently crashes
This happens when trying do to a certain action in the "Touchpad" section:
Trying to drag the "Drag me" icon in the Testing area and drop it in a specific corner (the one just above the "Apply" button).
(a short screen recording is attached)
It also produces a consistent crash report:
Code: Select all

It's working as expected here (also UK). Clicking displays the contents of the waste-bin in Dolphin; if the waste-bin is empty it opens Dolphin correctly also.

Just a heads up to the KDE Beta users.... you're probably gonna see a lot of updates now that the AHS repos are populating.

Same here. As I recall there were 46, mostly libraries.

Jerry asked me for a screenshot of Task Scheduler for KDE for the manual. It is not installed in the current ISO. I installed it and provided the screenshot. I think it should be installed by default.

So I'm not one to care much about appearances and theming and the like, but this is something that kinda bugs me and should be an easy "fix" for someone who knows what he's doing.
With MX21b2KDE, on startup, the background for the grub screen is the dark blue and black pyramid image; then you get the circular throbber with a turquoise background with some stylistic swirls; then the "twirling DNA"; then the login screen which appears to be laid over the wallpaper image but is fuzzed out dramatically; and then finally the gorgeous red & pink flowers wallpaper. None of that follows. It's disjointed. It just looks cobbled together.
I think it was MX 17 (don't hold me to that) that had the startup visual that transitioned from a black and white image to the full color wallpaper. First time I saw that I literally, actually, said "Wow" out loud. It reminded me of the Wizard of Oz when Dorothy's house landed. That's how you make a first impression.
Just an offhand idle comment. I know you guys have bigger fish to fry, but if impressions matter, I'd like to see you somehow tie all the different startup screens together in one coherent whole.
