Here is a list of the repos I have. As I am now running Centos 8 Stream, should I remove any of the repos below to avoid package
versioning issues?

The file listing doesn't show which repositories are enabled or disabled. On my Stream 8 machine, which does light duty as a mail and web server, dnf reports only six active repos:

[root@omega ~]# dnf repolist
repo id       repo name
appstream     CentOS Stream 8 - AppStream
baseos        CentOS Stream 8 - BaseOS
epel          Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 8 - x86_64
epel-modular  Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux Modular 8 - x86_64
epel-next     Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 8 - Next - x86_64
extras        CentOS Stream 8 - Extras

I don't know anything about the remi* repositories, so I can't speak to them. I suspect the redhat.repo file is nothing but comments, but you'd need to verify its contents.

Otherwise, your *.repo list looks pretty functional.
