How do you replace SDDM with LightDM in Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon?
You are given an option when installing KDE to choose between SDDM and LightDM, however i choosed LightDM and i want to use SDDM instead.

Correct me if this is not understandable enough because i installed Linux yesterday.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure sddm

FYI: you can use `lightdm` instead of `sddm` in that command; as it'll result in the same thing - ie. you're asked to pick one of the choices again.

Note: that's what I'd do on a Ubuntu system (such as my own Lubuntu; I can't imagine it differs with Linux Mint; I've not used it in years)

A bit off-topic, just want to ask/clarify. It technically should work on any .deb-based distribution, right?
