As stated, there are holes here and there, but overall I like what I think I'm seeing.
I'm very impressed by the effort put forth to be able to appeal to people outside China who don't read Chinese. Yes, I'm aware it's our deficiency, but thank you!
I have always found Deepin to be the most aesthetic distro.

This is a personal quib, but I sure wish it wasn't based on Debian, the petrified software of our grandfathers (too old and static), though I did note that the kernel at least was a 6.12.x. Perhaps you're basing on at least the experimental branch of Debian, I haven't yet taken time to look at software version?

Currently deepin is maintaining an independent upstream.

I wish it was based on OpenHarmony instead of Linux. I use Deepin mainly to download anime torrents via the included Downloader app. I still use Windows as my main work OS. Linux is too slow on 3rd/6th gen Intel systems to be more useful than Windows.

Deb files lack full upgrades, dependencies not met. Wine runner not working lilke in Version 23. System updates failing. I would like to see playonlinux inserted in apps.
