All we needed after CentOS was a drop-in replacement with good backing. That's what this is, so it perfectly fills the gap and saves me from having to re-tool and re-document everything. There's fine arguments to be made for jumping off RHEL, but if you're on it, it works, and I can focus on actually making things.

> All we needed after CentOS was a drop-in replacement with good backing. I don't disagree, but lets be honest. We want free ReadHat without support. That is what CentOS was. And this is what Rocky Linux is. Still not sure, how long term sustainable it is, because if you want paying option you just go back to RHEL, so whats is there left for Rocky. They seem to have plenty of sponsors, so lets hope I am just being a pessimist. I have started to slowly migrate away from RHEL, to ubuntu server. But their recent push for snaps even on servers is annoying. I tried raw Debian, but honestly I still prefer Ubuntu server. Have to try NixOS, and other similar.
