Download Deepin 15.7 has been released on August 20, a version focused on optimizing and improving performance, at least with respect to its previous version, Deepin 15.6. Deepin is a Debian-based distribution that has stood out in recent months for its functionality, performance and aesthetics.
The Deepin team has published graphs and infographics on the benefits of the new Deepin 15.7, curious data because not only does it improve compared to its previous version but also it also improves on Windows 10 and Ubuntu itself.The last version of Deepin focused on aesthetics and this new version focuses on optimization. One of the things that has improved is the number of packages, which has been reduced considerably and the packages that have been maintained have been optimized. Energy expenditure has also been optimized, reaching 20% more autonomy in equipment that uses battery.
But the most striking has been ram memory usage during first boot, the startup that always consumes more than the rest of the startups. Deepin 15.7 consumes 833 Mb compared to 1,1 Gb of ram that Ubuntu consumes during its first start.
The distribution dock has also been improved, debugging widgets like the network one for better performance. Another element that stands out in this new version is the inclusion of Nvidia Prime, a driver for Nvidia cards and chipsets. In any case, I do not think that the problem of the operation of certain models is in the distribution, rather it is in the release of the drivers.
If you still do not have Deepin on your computer and you want to try it, in the official website You can find the download links for the ISO images as well as the documentation for their installation and some problems that may exist with certain types of hardware.
It's not that it's a very difficult challenge either, if they had said they were going to be faster than Debian.
Ubuntu itself is much faster simply by changing the graphical environment for it.
I do not trust this distribution because it is China and I think that the Chinese government has one more tool to spy on us
What happens with the luks encryption in deepin 15.7, I remember that in its beginnings it had it, what happens now with it.
I liked the article, that it talks about technical issues of a distribution that is making its way, but I think it is necessary to talk about the specific aspects of security. Not because they are Chinese, we have to see what happens with Ubuntu and its relationship with Amazon, what happens at the same time with distributions that, no matter how beautiful or that bring more news in their updates, such as fedora, come from companies. Privacy & Security?.
I believe in the precepts of the beginnings of Linux, but what we do as a Linux community to support distributions such as DEBIAN or TAILS, which seek to maintain what is often talked about and spread with Linux.
You don't trust this Chinese distribution? But what else, being open source there are always 20000000 eyes looking for something strange.

It does not promise already fulfilled it, it is better than any other eye-talking distro that has a very aesthetic interface.
It is the best in stability and now if you want noticeably more speed to install it under the jfs or xfs file system they are the fastest what is ex4 is a turtle in flip flops.
You do not trust this distro because it is Chinese, but nevertheless you write from a windows pc ... what an inconsistency yours !!
