I do believe CentOS Stream is awesome software. It has to be since it's close to what RHEL is. My problem with CentOS Stream is that it's not a distribution of my choice, and I feel forced to use CentOS Stream. While at the same time, distributions of my choice Fedora, Scientific Linux, CentOS Linux, Rocky Linux, and AlmaLinux, are consequently taken down, to a moment that I'm not sure whenever RHEL is still an open-source software. Most likely, I'm too paranoid, but I'm afraid that if Red Hat successfully kills RHEL downstream projects, bad things will start to happen to CentOS Stream as well.
