There's a lot of people using CentOS indirectly, through CloudLinux. Whatever happens there, a lot of people will be affected.
- Galanwe 6y agoAnd Scientific Linux, and Amazon Linux, etc.
- em500 6y agoSL never released version 8 (they switched to CentOS8). Amazon (correct me if I'm wrong) does not release installer ISOs. AFAIK, closest to a plain free RHEL8 clone is Oracle Linux.
- zxspectrum1982 6y agoThere's also Springdale Linux.
- kasabali 6y agoWow I forgot it existed. I must've erased it from my mind along with Scientific Linux. Nice to see they've kept it up-to-date so far.
