I started with Mint Mate 18 and am now in 20.1
I find the GUI Monitor Manger lacking since Mate 18
moving the monitors leaves trails all over
then the Primary Desktop Icons end up on the Secondary or Tertiary Monitor
IMO the Mate Desktop with multiple monitors still needs a lot of work
and once the Desktop Icons disappeared until reboot

Re: Multiple Monitors
Are you using the same version of Maté in each Mint release (18 & 20.1)? If not, then the difference you see is a Maté controlled issue (not Mint). If the issue is Maté controlled, you should contact the Maté devs to let them know your concern(s). The only Mint developed desktop is Cinnamon, so far as I know.
