But there are a few times the Cinnamon Desktop just freezes and crashes while I am in the middle of some work. This kind of throws me off. I have tried most of the tricks on the LM forums and nothing leads me to a proper solution.

I had customized my Cinnamon to look and behave like Mac and was successful to an extent that I could manage.
