What is the password for Lingmo Live User during the installation process?

live. If there are any changes, they will be explained here.

What Linux distribution does Lingmo OS based on?

Debian.

Why not Debian 12 (stable) but Debian 13 (unstable)?

We planned to migrate LingmoDE to Qt6, since Debian 12 don't have necessary packages, we have to use Debian 13.

Why not Arch?

There's a project called ArchLingmo, but it's not meant to replace the Debian mainline version, because Debian is easier for beginners on system maintenance tasks.

However LingmoDE packages are available on AUR.

Are there any LingmoDE packages for Debian 12?

Yes. See https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/elysia:/LingmoOS/Debian_12/.
