In the Linux world there are many desktops or graphical environments. The most used are GNOME and KDE, but there are also LXQt, Xfce, MATE... and if I continued I would be writing for a long time. There would not only be desktops, but also window managers. Many try to modernize, but the one that seems most dressed up of all is the one that uses this distribution that comes to us from China and that a few moments ago has presented deepin V23.
A long time ago, when i wrote who had been using Deepin for a while, there were several comments that complained that Deepin was not the same as DDE. So to avoid confusion, deepin V23, written like this, with initial in lowercase and "V" in uppercase version, is the new version of the operating system. What follows is the list of the most notable new features of this version.
