Do you use a script to post like that or just observe for a very long time?

Ok

It's an approximation of OS X made by shitheads who've never actually used OS X.

It looks nice, doesnt do much of anything else better than any other distro. Good luck getting developers to actually give a shit about problems with it, though.

Why do people like to use the bar on top? It makes no sense since if you are using a window maximizes the close button won't be on the corners making it harder to close the window and click the top bar accidentaly. That or changing tabs since you now have to target the specific tab in two axis instead of just moving your mouse to the top of the screen and moving left or right

It's a piece of shit. Distro. Devs demanding you give them money or you get called a cheater for using it for free. Even though 90% of it is forked from something else. Plus their release schedule is stupid slow.

>stole from grub
>when downloading it asks for 10 dollars. its free but you have to search around
>based off ubuntu
>hard on for osx aqua
>wannabe mac fags
if you aren't dumb get like good distros like arch, debian, alpine , gentoo, slackware , or fedora.

Hell try *bsd its pretty neato

I bet the devs were pissed when the OS X redesign came out :')

their UIs are pretty but they make poor decisions (e.g. no minimizing windows, single-click in file browser)

devs themselves are leeches and hypocrites, they call users childish names for downloading their FOSS software for free and act like they deserve $10 donations from downloads, even though their DE is average (and mostly contains applications they forked and reskinned), and the rest of their OS is just a standard *buntu derivative with a dead-end upgrade path

Unoriginal.
The Mac-like appearance is just that; appearance. Barely skin-deep.
It doesn't operate like a Mac nor does it have the Mac applications.

Linux deepin is better.
There is even 2 other modes that can also replicate Windows 7 and Windows XP interface that you can easily switch between.
