I don't understand why anyone that would consider switching to Debian has problems with CentOS Stream. They have the same release model / policy.

- rany_ 3y agoPossibly due to a misunderstanding of Debian, they probably think the release lifecycle is similar to Ubuntu LTS or RHEL.
- beojan 3y agoCentOS Stream seems to be more like stable + proposed-updates than just stable.
- dralley 3y agoEvery update that goes into CentOS Stream is not a "proposed update", it is an update that has gone through the entire QA process and is scheduled to go into the next RHEL minor release. It's the same as Debian, except that Debian has no other "more stable" point release branch, it just has the one that updates flow into after being tested.
- progmetaldev 3y agoI might be misunderstanding what you're saying, but Debian Stable has LTS versions, which will give you your stable system for a longer period of time.
