deepin (formerly, Deepin, Linux Deepin, Hiweed GNU/Linux) is a Debian-based distribution (it was Ubuntu-based until version 15 released in late 2015) that aims to provide an elegant, user-friendly and reliable operating system. It does not only include the best the open source world has to offer, but it has also created its own desktop environment called DDE or Deepin Desktop Environment which is based on the Qt 5 toolkit. Deepin focuses much of its attention on intuitive design. Its home-grown applications, like Deepin Software Centre, DMusic and DPlayer are tailored to the average user. Being easy to install and use, deepin can be a good Windows alternative for office and home use.

Have been a Deepin user for a long time now and it just keeps getting better and better, leaving all the other Distros in its dust. it is super easy to set up and use. Plenty of files in repository to suit all types of use. It is suitable for a user coming from that other OS, which is not very friendly at all. I find it very easy to use as i am 75 yrs old and don't have a degree in computer science which alot of other distros think you have to be able to use them at all. It is based on Debian which is a highly recommended OS in its own right..

I'm passionate about linux distros, I like to install them and try with real installation. Among the gnu linux distro without a doubt Deepin is the graphics we have all been waiting for. Vivid with elegant style with high visual appeal and practicality that encompasses both Windows and Mac users. Easy and intuitive. Based on debian and this improves its development plus it has an App store that alone includes all the apps you need. I'm also pretty comfortable with dual booting with Windows.
Installation is easy

Well, I'm a Linux Newbie. I worked with MacOS for about 20years. I liked the look of deepin and I gave it a try. It worked right out of the box, and it it looks pretty. I can not compare with other distros, but I feel no need to try others. As they have an english speaking Telegram Channel, I can ask there for help. It sounds a bit ridiculous to take the look for so important, but beauty of a desktop environment comes, when it is well structured and reflects this structure, this technical design, in the graphical design. If you like what you see than you like to work with it. That's why I once had MacOS. And now I'm preparing to switch to Linux.
