How to disable deepin dock?

Hi,
is there a way to disable the deepin dock. Seeing that it is not very stable I decided to try replacing it with cairo dock and seeing how it goes. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Anti-frozen function has been added in dock, so dock will automatically show after killed. Right-click on dock can switch to other modes and be set to hide all the time. If you really don't want to use it,there is the method: logout, CTRL+Alt+F1 into tty1, then execute the command:

sudo mv /usr/bin/dde-dock ~/

and then press CTRL+Alt+F7 return to login interface. Your operation will effect after logged in.

Awesome, thanks!
What if it needs reverting to the original state? I ask just in case.....

@korso19
If you want to get dock back, please change the above command to:
sudo mv ~/dde-dock /usr/bin/

Then the dock will come back.

Actually, if I may write so, this command can now be pasted directly into the deepin terminal to delete the dock only.
