 I tried v3 and v10. They are vastly different. If i had to choose, I would go with v10. Though it looks visually nice, the system does not flow very well. I'm completely fine with learning a new desktop environment, but this was....slightly frustrating. I couldn't really feel like I had a home in the desktop environment. Additionally, something about the way the system greets you, it almost feels like the entire OS is Malware/Spyware or something. Something about the OS just feels like it's being deceptive (I say this coming from someone who ran Deepin Linux 25 for 2 months as a daily driver). I didn't find anything per say, just had that feeling. I ran it live from a Ventoy USB, but when I was done I immediately deleted it just because I felt dirty lol. Sorry devs, if you see this, something just feels off about your OS. I appreciate the effort to offer something new in terms of desktop environments though.

 The district is beautiful and different. I was in love with it from login. But the glitch after glitch freezing, no clear route to terminal android access with no android App Store easily found. If you were ok with it out the box great but less open the arch but harder to rice and add apps. I may have bed my metal but other distros run smooth. Download is simple and interface is smooth until you attempt to update and add apps. I will try it on other metal and see. I do like the android apps access if I can get it to work on a set up. New Distro let fix these bugs
