it’s still “around” but its leadership and mission have changed drastically enough since IBM’s purchase of RedHat to represent something completely else from what it once did and how you probably thought of it back when you paid attention to it. i’m sure if you installed it you’d find it all very familiar for a while, but eventually you’d hit something that made you go “hey wait”
is centos still around? jumped on ubuntu to escape rpm corruption. don’t care to know anymore. shutdown -h now; not in the menu? wtf

replaced an IBM mainframe with a rack of linux DB2 and app servers. they wanted a cert to keep legal happy. a week paid vacation for the cert.
