Has anyone tried Deepin?

Tried to install it but I wasn't aware that it wouldn't support btrfs so I dropped it. But the installer looks very, very nice. Surprisingly enough, it has detected my timezone, and proposed english as first choice. The disk partitioning part is just lovely. It tells you what's on the partition, how much free disk space there is there, and the design is just candy for the eye.

I will never try deepin, it's slow and Chinese. And no Chinese product is reliable and trusted like MS although Apple iPhone manufactured by them too.
One thing I started learning late, never break that's running.
I tried many distros, although not a fan of xfce, but MX is the thing that simply runs, trusted with very supportive forum and what ever I need is at left click or right click.
One thing that I only miss, a perfect KDE on MX like Linux mint KDE or kubuntu or netrunner offers. Though netrunner is based on debian with best polished KDE and all gtk as well as qt application look similar, but it's not that straight MX, I need to open CLI some time, which never required on MX.

Would not use it myself for the above reasons, but its reviewed on Distrowatch today by Robert Rijkhoff.

"EKSF" anyway, why would you suspect China for a linux distro while buying practically everything else that was made in China (including consumer and professional-grade electronics).

I just wonder if there's a topic in Deepin or any other distro forums " Have You Tried MX ? " ... " They say it's snappy, light and stable ..."
