No, it isn't. Deepin was made to be beautiful and it is known for being that. So, it is not a personal opinion at all. Calling a DE terrible without any details is completely stupid and a very bad con. If it is indeed terrible for desktops, then you should at least give some reasons why it is so. And the reasons should be relevant too.
It's not my con, and yes, it'd be nice if user explained a bit more. However, it seems they felt strongly enough about it to mention it. You may disagree with it but it's not reason enough to flag it.
"Made to be beautiful" is still not a metric, it's pretty much a matter of taste.
Also, I'd appreciate it if you stopped cloning accounts to upvote Deepin and downvote other distros. This may result in Deepin getting banned as a product altogether.
Still valid since it's user's subjective opinion. You can always downvote the Pros/Cons you disagree with. Please, stop flagging it.
A desktop like any other - probably flagged by some Linux fanboys
Maybe this option should be flagged and each of those distros be added separately? Since Chromium OS isn't a user-facing OS perse.
All ChromiumOS forks share the same User-Interface/Desktop so there is no need to add each distribution seperately. However since building ChromiumOS as an end-user is a nearly impossible task there should be a list (in the description) to the most used ChromiumOS forks like: ChromeOS, CloudReady, FydeOS etc.
ChromiumOS technically does not fit the question, so we can't add it. And to follow the format of Slant, we should add things that have a "get it here" link that allows you to get the product that was compared to others under the given question. I think the solution would be to add a selection of the distros - whichever of them seem best.
ChromiumOS technically does not fit the question
It does, because we compare Desktops here not the OS" itself.
Distributions have nothing to do with desktops as a distribution is a software bundle published by someone ( OS+User-land+Desktop+Applications). As for me this Question compares desktops, the part of the OS in which the user interacts, so we talk/compare things like web browsing, file management and window management(basically everything after the login)
As for me this Question compares desktops
Well, yes, but Chromium OS is not a DE even though it kinda technically includes a DE. It can be confusing for other users to have this listed here. It's not like you can use the Chromium OS desktop with any distribution (like with KDE for example).
As you can see in the Question ist is not about Linux desktop environments - it is about Desktops and Chromium has a desktop. It has its own panel an browser, a file manager and a archie manager.
PS: I started this question so I know for what i was asking - the problem is just that this side does not allow to add a description to a question to add more details.
Wouldn't this qualify "Windows" as an answer too then? Since Windows is an OS that comes with a built-in DE.
Yes, it is also included just like: OS/2, OSX, Haiku or PhoenixOS
Damn, and I thought it had an desktop like any other graphical OS - must be totaly wrong...
or use this https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ipp-cups-printing-for-chr/lkhfeoafdgbaecajkdbioenncjopbpmk?hl=en-GB there are also other apps linke HPPrint for Chrome
Thats not true the ChromeOS WebStore has an seperate section for apps which is only displayed on ChromeOS. Newer Releses have also the Android PlayStore installed which gives you all android apps. Recently ChromeOS can now run real Linux apps.

this might be case for garage firms, but a company like Apple or Microsoft has the money to let a whole army of programmers work on one project in full-time
Just so you know, while Caja does the same with text files, there is a setting in the settings, where you can specify default behavior and the dialog will never show up again. So much for user-friendliness. This actually makes a lot of sense, once you understand, why it is there. This dialog shows up for executable files. And one explanation is SCRIPTS. Because you could either run or edit them. So, this dialog makes it actually MORE user-friendly, not less. Also, why would you use empty panel applets. I never had one. And in the original setup, there is none. Maybe except for the spacer, which is actually there to HELP you with your alignment. Sorry, but I have used Mate for years. So, have a number of other users around me like 2 seniors. Switching from Windows to Linux with Mate, they had like 3 questions. All it took, was less than 5 minutes of explanation. They have been using it ever since without any trouble whatsoever. So, it barely gets more user-friendly and stable than Mate. I completely disagree.
This actually makes a lot of sense, once you understand, why it is there.
that doesnt matter the file type is text-x-svg+xml and it makes no sense for an SVG. A file manager has to manage the files in a comfort way on my computer an it the file type does't support that feature it shouldnt be displayed(eg have a look at other file managers)
Also, why would you use empty panel applets. I never had one.
Its not about empty panels it about the panel customization in general eg: you have a panel full of applets and to move them you have to unlock them and drag them around. However you get no hint where the panel ends and where the applet begins so you often have to use trial and error to find the right spot by right clicking on the panel space. (Also un unconfigured applet eg like the sensors is empty so its about one pixel width, try to find it with right click on a 4k monitor)
For a much better/friendly solution have a look at the xfce panel where you also can modify the panel just like in mate, however at the same time you can go into the panel preferences where you have a list of all applets/plugins, so you can easily rearrange them and modify their configurations
Sorry! No offense, but my english skills are limited, so i became a copy cat. I'm going to create something »new« :-)
Eheh, no worries! We welcome original user-created content very much, so thanks for taking the time to contribute!
But it is a great community when it comes to kindness and competence :-)
This is only half true: other DEs can't run themes/apps for Cinnamon but Cinnamon can run any theme or apps meant for other DEs which makes it better than the rest of the DEs.
One of the benefits of Linux is the ability to modify and pair to your liking. Here I prefer the KDE Plasma desktop on Debian.
I dont think its a duplicate because the question you linked is about Operating Systems - However for a desktop user its its more likely to compare Desktop Environments to Windows or OSX instead of Linux(A or B) to Windows.
Are we talking about just the user interface of an OS here? :)
Since people flag without any reason valid options the whole question is now obsolete
