The Linux Mint 22.1 distribution was slated for release in December 2024 with a revamped Cinnamon theme and better package management.

Slated for release in December 2024, near the Christmas holidays, Linux Mint 22.1 will ship with the soon-to-be-released Cinnamon 6.4 desktop environment featuring a revamped theme that’s much darker and contrasted than before, rounded elements, redesigned dialogs, and a gap between the applets and the panel.

The transition towards Aptkit and Captain is now finished. Starting with Linux Mint 22.1, set to be released this December, none of our projects will depend on aptdaemon, synaptic, gdebi or apturl anymore.

    This is my grandpa time, but I love Cinnamon for the less modern UI.

    The new UI won’t bother me a cent, but I really disliked KDE for no apparent reason, and Cinnamon hit right what I like about a UI.

    I understand that a lot of things can be customized, but I am talking about OoB experience.
