Creating personal Respins with different desktops or window managers that are not official versions of MX-Linux, such as Mate, Cinnamon (from LMDE), LXDE, LxQt, etc., and other Debian derivatives, such as LMDE, ParrotOS, etc.
I am trying to share how I did it, so that others can do it themselves...
This is a personal hobby of a GNU-Linux user that would be impossible without the magnificent MX-Linux distribution, https://mxlinux.org/, the excellent tools it provides, and the selfless help of its developers and users on the MX-Linux forum, https://forum.mxlinux.org/.

  • Tried the MX-25 cinnamon respin, just for curiosity really because I'm quite happy with the default XFCE version (once that silly side taskbar is moved to the bottom that is) and it looks great. I know people get attached to certain desktop environments, so if this is your reason for not trying MX Linux, now you've got no excuse! Looking forward to trying the Parrot respin too.

    I'm testing the Parrot-7 beta :-), but my MX-25/Parrot-7 will be with Mate, sorry, but I can't handle KDE, ha ha ha ha.
