From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ah ic, thanks for sharing your experience! So which RHEL derivative did you end up going with?
Rocky for now, but I can’t say that’s set in stone
Rocky still walkaround using UBI source, and it's open, so in the end it's 99.99% compatible with RHEL.
Just fuck CIQ with their contract...
