I can't distro hop anymore, why?

1) dde-desktop - has groups on the desktop, so there is no desktop like dde, yet
2) dde-terminal - has many things, that other terminals that I know, not
3) free crossover office - I'm programming in b4a for windows and I can run in corssover office without virtualbox, is not working under wine or playonlinux
4) dde-dock in fashion mode - i like it totally, I can't find any similar enough
5) dde-control-center - there is no control center like dde-control-center
6) dde-launcher - has few good things in it so is good enough to use it
7) debian based - that's very important for me at least, I did many distro hops and I know now, what is best linux solution for me

What I really miss? Not much, just two things really:

1) wobbly windows effect
2) alt+f2 run/search dialog like kde (now i use synapse)

Not much to the perfect desktop for me, ya?

Well, few bugs are here, but I'm sure devs will fix them sooner or later.

And you?

1) For me it been the first time in years that my ageing quad monitor workstation performed very good on Linux. Most distros I have tried do not work. and currently only 2 or 3 others that marginally work.

2) It must be there unique combination based on roots of Gnome a Gala based windows manager with QT, HTML5 and Debian. What ever the correct way to define it does not matter to me because it works very good.

3) There DDE is unique and elegant with multitasking capablities.

4) Advanced features built into Deepin Terminal.

5) Where else can you find a control center with so many features.

6) And of course there unique and elegant multi media applications.


We need a better file manager, this will fix many of the bugs. I have patience.

My thoughts exactly! Deepin is overall the best Linux desktop I'm aware of and combines with the power and flexibility of debian. Best desktop, best control center, great dock (I prefer efficient mode), good launcher, good apps, good sound effects setup, excellent overall ui/ux design and good user friendly features (although there is room to improve). I have my eyes on Deepin, I really hope they continue this path for the future.

The only thing I need is to include an interface to access the system with fingerprint . My notebook has fingerprint reader but can not use it. I think it's one of the things that should be included as soon be commonly found in other devices.

Thank you. I don't  see in app launcher.

I tried to send a suggestion but takes too long .
Ends asking if I want to send it again.
It is working well?
this slowness may be related to slow repository servers ?
