Rocky Linux is a rebuild of RHEL using end-runs around the RHEL EULA. Whether you like the RH EULA or not, that still puts Rocky on shaky ground.
AlmaLinux is built from the same CentOS Sources as RHEL and patches faster, with no legal shenanigans, and, unlike Rocky Linux, is backed by an actual non-profit community that is not dominated by a single company.
To me, AlmaLinux is the true community successor to legacy CentOS.
- freedomben 2y agoFully agree. Alma is the true continuation of CentOS IMHO. The Alma team has developed some serious chops, and contributes to the ecosystem as well. The Alma team is doing things the right way, and I have a lot of respect and appreciation for them.
