edited to add that Cinnamon is also available through Synaptic.

Or install the cinnamon-desktop-environment metapackage from Enabled Repos using MXPI; with the recommended stuff if you want the whole load.

You can try using a LinuxMint live cd/ usb.

You could always install Debian 12.8.0 with the Cinnamon desktop

Ive tested "Senpai_Respin_Cinnamon_MX-23.4_x64" using vbox and i like it. Still im gonna wait until i can select it from the mx tools easy install.

The Linux Mint Debian Edition's repository might have a newer Cinnamon that's supposed to be compatible with MX 23, but that has to be tested first.

I don't think any of the development team uses that desktop, so it could be a long wait for it to appear as a one-click option in MXPI, unless it just does what I suggested above. A lot of the recommended packages are already installed on an MX XFCE install.

Linux Mint's current Cinnamon version is 6.2.9 for both LM 22 Ubuntu base and LMDE 6.

You can see what versions some other distros have at repology.
