Re: Centos versions in the future?

Fashion, and Oracle's past practices.  I evaluated
    Alma Linux
    Fedora
    Mint
    Open SuSE
    Oracle Linux
    Springdale Linux
and settled on Alma. Rocky was still vapourware when Alma was stable. I've seen how Oracle promise no change in the long term, then change their charging model in the past. We got badly burned at work when they took over DEC RDB.

I like Alma's independence built on Cloud's experience over many years building RHEL clones.

Just my 2d worth.

Rocky Linux is the New Kid On The Block and gets all the attention.

Whereas Oracle Linux (the best RHEL clone in terms of maintenance reactivity)
has been around since 2006, free as in beer since 2012, and nobody wants to
touch it.

Go figure.
