Linux Mint 22.3 Zena: New Cinnamon Menu, Wayland & Warpinator
Linux Mint 22.3 — codename Zena — is nearly here: a beta is planned for December and the release brings a refreshed Cinnamon menu, new System Info / Admin tools, Wayland-compatible keyboard/IM handling, improved on-screen keyboard, and quality-of-life updates across Nemo, Timeshift and Warpinator.

In this video I walk through the best changes you need to know (pause file operations in Nemo, snapshots in Timeshift, text messaging in Warpinator, always-on Night Light, template management and per-app panel indicators), show the new Cinnamon menu, and explain what this means if you plan to upgrade or wait for the stable release.
What to expect next: most packages are tagged and the project is preparing a short beta cycle; Linux Mint 22.3 will continue to use the 22.x base for a safe upgrade path.
