Was wondering when this would land. I’ve been considering returning to Debian full force but after running Mint for some years some bad habits linger. Maybe LMDE can prove to be a good middle of the way.
For those who tried: how does LMDE behaves when loading any other DE not Cinnamon?
I’ve seen some reviews where LMDE being the backup plan for Mint, Cinnamon was the only priority; if that is to change, great. I’m hoping to move to XFCE again.

On LMDE 5 I had some problems with multiple wm/de’s but im assuming that’s a large part of what they’re going to fix in this release

If you’re not using Cinnamon, why not just use Debian? What else does mint add?
Older software, mostly. Debian was my daily driver for years but it comes to a point where having to deal with aged software becomes tiresome.
This also meant not having the required - and newer - version of some library to run some other program.
Mint also refines Debian a little more. Makes it less harsh.
Yeah, on desktop I use Debian Unstable, which is a really great rolling release distro with really bad marketing.
I’m not tech savvy enough to mess with Sid. Not by a long shot.
