When using alpha Version now, is it possible to go through beta and RC to stabile/official without reinstalling?
Will there be the same repos?
Or are there new and separate repos for each and new, clean installation is recommended for each version?
Copied from the very first post.
This Aplha, as with all other alphas is NOT intended to replace your daily driver and all support will end when the next release, be it another Alpha or a beta is released.

Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.
Thank you very much, my fault not to see it :(
But in general, is it for all the same?
Alpha, beta, RC, official 23.x
At the end I have to install from scratch, each version?
The whole chain
The Settings Manager behaves in MX32FB a little bit strange to me. After choosing Tint2 Manager it disappears, but after applying changes in Tint2 Manager the Settings Manager comes back, even without closing the Tint2 Manager. I think this kind of behavior is really annoying, because after applying changes to the Tint2, I'd like just to see the effect without anything disturbing me. I think it would be even better if the Setting Manager window stay where it was without closing at all, than this.
The other problem with themes chosen by MX-Tweak is that it is good only on GTK3 apps, but has no effect on GTK2/QT apps. Here you've got on the screenshot MX-comfort-dark well applied on Thunar (gtk3) vs. Pcmanfm-qt and Featherpad with the default light theme. As you can also see in the featherpad window, the qt-platformtheme variables seem ok.

Still fiddling with a new tint2 workspace panel
Anyone interested in trying out a panel with workspaces in the taskbar?
Would appreciate some feedback ...
For me it looks good, but from the ergonomic point of view such a big margin is a waste of space. Icons seem to me also a little bit too small.

Repos are the same. But I can’t guarantee updating from alpha will get you the same thing as an official release. In the alpha case it will always report itself as alpha.

The themes will change but depending on what else you have installed there may be conflicts with Qt. In particular if there are modifications to css files. Kde and fluxbox are a bad mix for this reason. Kde makes modifications to gtk settings files assuming it’s the only desktop installed. This also affects lxappearance.
