As a regular user of both and a prolific runner of CentOS in production, I would err towards Debian these days. It just feels better to me. Things like hanging updates applying SELinux policies, the whole Python mess and the lag between RHEL and CentOS patches (this has improved I will say) etc just sort of put me off CentOS a bit. It's also a lot lighter.
- lima 9y agoPython is nicer in CentOS though. Software Collections are great: https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/?search=python https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/?search=python
- cjsuk 9y agoWe just use distro provided python versions on debian and virtualenvs. Don't touch anything else! Probably right on the basis of the above however.
