  • Old Menu in LM Cinnamon 22.3

    No workaround needed anymore. Classic Menu has been added to Cinnamon
    Applets (Spices), if you want to revert to the old standard menu. Just download it from applets (right click on your panel and add it to your
    panel).

    If you're working off Linux Mint 22.3 beta, you might have to update it
    first to see the Classic Menu option rCo that's what I did to test it. (I don't know how often beta updates are renewed for downloading.)

    Just because you play "dress up" doesn't
    mean I have to play "make believe."

    I was just testing KDE neon and noticed that the default menu there is so close to the
    applet cinnamenu (once you configure it a bit). I'm kinda used to it now however it's
    nice to know you can go back to the classic.
