We are creating a series of YouTube videos under the “edu-“ label to guide users through the migration from ArcoLinux to Arch Linux. These tutorials aim to make the transition process smoother by explaining each step clearly and providing practical examples. Whether you’re switching to gain more control or to learn vanilla Arch, our edu- videos are here to support your journey.

ArcoLinux has stopped

Teaching never stops—because learning is a lifelong journey for all of us.

12 changing the appearance of deepin – icons, themes, cursors, … or personalisation of Deepin

We navigate to the control center and take a look at personalisation.

In theme you will find the

  • theme
  • icons
  • cursors

We select Arc Dark. You will see that not all applications will follow this theme. That is normal.

Thunar will now follow the Arc Dark theme but not the filemanager of Deepin for example.

We have lots of icons because of the scripts we ran in the nemesis script. See previous article for more info.

You can set the transparency of the control center.

You can change the font and the size of the fonts.

Last but not least you can enable or disable the window effects. This sometimes does not work on virtualbox. When installing Deepin on vb you will be asked if you want to enable the desktop effects or not.

Better install Deepin on SSD really.
