Hi, mostly i use REHL based distros like Centos/Rocky/Oracle for the solutions i develop but it seems its time to leave…

What good server/minimal distro you use ?

Will start to test Debian stable.

    Any issues with CentOS stream for your work? Could always switch to Fedora server too if you wanted to keep the same structures and such, but separate some from RedHat.

      Red Hat has alot of sway with Fedora considering they pulled those codecs out of it. That’s when I realized it isn’t really a community distro.

        It think it’s more for RH/IBM to test new stuff on the community as opposed to something like Debian or Gentoo that actually has a fairly clear community commitment.

        I don’t recall a lot community polling and discussion when they moved to systemd, btrfs or wayland.

      OP wants to get away from RHEL and RHEL-adjacent distros. CentOS Stream and Fedora are still in the same ecosystem and are heavily influenced by Red Hat. People want to believe that Fedora is separate from Red Hat but when Red Hat fires the Fedora program manager, it’s clear that they hold significant power over the direction of the OS and could easily kill it off/change it like they did to CentOS.

        They actually own centos though, and from my understanding the Fedora org isn’t ran by RedHat, just sponsored.
