One of you guys requested I take a look at the newly released ubuntuDDE. In short this is a simple lightweight rendition of the Deepin desktop environment.

Hey everyone, sorry I didn't talk more about the lightweight-ness of this. In short the ram use on boot is right around 700mb. Some of the features from a plain Deepin install has been striped and there is a lack of animations. Overall very snappy. Still to buggy for my taste.

I tried UbuntuDDE in the past since I was blinded by the beauty of the DE. I wanted to use it at all costs but then I realised that it's not actually that good. It doesn't have that many features and since there are no extensions what you see is what you get. Right now, I'm on Fedora 35 and Zorin OS 16; I use Zorin OS more than Fedora despite it being a downgrade compared to Fedora just because of the polish. I tried replicating Zorin OS on Fedora but I ended up creating an abomination.

I am running Ubuntudde 21.10 on the original Lenovo X1 Carbon laptop which came out back in 2012. It is an excellent experience for what I use it for. Hard to believe a 10 year old laptop still gets daily use but this rendition gives it new life.

Brandon I must thank you, you're hero to me because you saved me from a frustrating series of distro hopping (solus budgie, ubuntu, fedoraWS, fedora kde, mint, popOS, elementary OS, endeavour OS kde and budgie, manjaro kde and gnome, kubuntu,ubuntu budgie, feren OS and winner of my heart zorin OS 16.)

I have been using Deepin for more than 3 years. we are now at version 20.3, and I must say that it performs really well. I installed it in 3 home PCs. It shows no signs of abating, everything works regularly. This version of Ubuntu has never tried it, but from what I have seen it uses an older version of Deepin, at least from what I have already seen when seeing the store. Other Linux distros don't give me the satisfaction that Deepin gives me. However, nothing detract from the Linux alternatives, this is just my impression.

If Ubuntu with KDE desktop is Kubuntu, with XFCE desktop is Xubuntu, than with DDE can be Dubuntu? 🤔

Who doesn't know it: sitting in front of the PC and getting paid for changing wallpapers. Most important feature ever ;)

Hi, I've been using Ubuntu DDE for last month. I chose it because it allowed me to easily install it aside the windows, simply replacing my older linux partition. I thought it would be de-chineesed version of deepin, but I was right and wrong.
Sure it is de-chineesed...but I could not install unofficial deepin extensions, and overall it was quite buggy, and there is a mess with package management.
Many times it crashed just downloading files, blur sometimes turns off on panel, and window snapping has a white ugly box. Weird blackscreen glitch at login, they told they fixed it after update, but it still is there, sometimes you have to reboot to login. touch controls break often (but I guess that is xorg issue) I understand that deepin is more difficult to work with so i guess it just comes with the territory. Until guys refine it it is not a recommended distro if you want something beautiful and stable.
I will probably take back my criticism because I plan on switching to DeepinOS and it might prove to be heavy and sluggish, so...we'll see :)

I didn’t really like Deepin until I realized it is perfect for 2-in-1 laptops with a touchscreen

Titlebars be a certified Firefox moment.

That being said, the Package Installer =/= Deepin Store - it's a custom DTK Store someone made for the project

If the default Deepin store’s not your thing, you can toss it and replace it with GNOME Software which brings with it flatpak support.

Can one turn On ROUNDED corners on the Dock like on Real Deepin? that dock looks horrible. I dont know why almost all Deepin spin offs that are not Deepin, Have this Dock issue. I think the settings is in the compositing settings to get them rounded.

I love the Deepin Desktop version of Ubuntu but it is too buggy to be used as a daily driver. Had to give up on that. I'm really sorry because it really is beautiful, but the bugs get too annoying after some time.

I noticed that you never review the distribution. You only click through the desktop.
