I’ve really been memorized by deepin, but I feed into the fear of the actual distro and China blah blah. I honestly dont know, but figure better safe than sorry. So I’ve tried Ubuntu DDE and it look like ass… Maybe they’ve update it since. I tried installing it on my fedora 38 workstation and it didn’t play well. Issues with rendering and weird quirks. I think I may need the lightdm display manager idk. Anyway I hear manjaro has community maintained version. Are there any actual distros that run a nice working DDE? I hear this distro called extix has a very nice version, but that distro seems a bit unknown itself. Any advice is appreciated thanks

    Try arcolinux. It’s normal arch + packages you select + a pre-customized DE or WM

            isn’t Garuda using Arch repos? how did it shit itself in one week? after installation Garuda and Arch should be indistinguishable. Also Manjaro has a history of shitting itself, but has been relatively stable lately (at least for me, although one of my systems did fail recently, can’t remember why though, I just switched back to arch on it).

              They use the same repos but some update from Arco destroyed it couldn’t even fix from Chroot and Manjaro shat itself but it was the bootloader and it fixed it self after a day
