Its use able. I like unified update mechanism and shared package/library/image systems

They basic now includes ads…

They used to under 10, and sharable, now for me and 3 family members its 51 dollars…

If Microsoft could stop pushing for needless expense exclusivety you would have a stronger point. DX needs to die so gaming can move on, for example.

Oh no, those judged seem touched. Maybe the need another sponsored yaht trip to clear their heads.

Fedora also has a rolling release version called rawhide

Flatpaks are great for GUI apps, and have a sandboxing system that allow them to work well on any system that support flatpak. This allows devs to package once run anywhere, saving Dev time! It also has a portals system to allow for better system integration of the granular permissions needed for the app to actually work (nobody wants a truly isolated sandbox for every app).

Snap is less featureful for GUI apps, but work closer to how native packages do. The real issue is the proprietary app store required for it, making non-foss. If you want the same benefits of snap, check out Guix and NixOS both of which have a more cleaner design, and work better IMHO.

Dang, Suse really coming in strong with this. I still wish they offered openQA too. Between Rancher, and Suse they really do go pound for pound against RedHat.

The rest, ansible for any sufficiently complex enough setup at the moment. Good for integration work with LDAP, etc if your using that. Again may play around with guix on that front.

I’m a /home on separate drive/partition kind of guy. I like it just following my installs. Though seeing some using guix/nixos to create a config for my desktop has got me wanting to spend a weekend trying that out.

I’m choosing to divest and look for more opportunities to help community ran distros to better fill that niche. Maybe NixOS or Guix as system os and rke2 and flatpak for the rest of services and apps.

The snap store is proprietary, flatpaks handle the graphical app space better, OCI containers handle the service space better, and really high reported load times.

Flatpaks are awesome IMHO.

Sorry about you getting a duplicate. I was trying to cross post just to places where I saw incorrectly that RedHat was going closed source.

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.

I will say openwrt is great for running on home routers. It’s more specialized for that purpose, being made to fit on the small flashes of some of them.

They aren’t loaning out money to have ports built? They don’t have a state run union? Their government isn’t filled with some of their richest? They don’t have a program reducate certain peoples that includes shipping them accross the country? Like come on, some of these are just established public facts that even the CCP doesn’t deny.

Wow that’s really cool! Seems like a great way to tinker around with some web dev stuff! Curious to see how this could fit into a greater development pipeline!

Stratum, Cumulus, Vyos, openwrt, and pfsense are all the most router focused options I can think of. You also have options of just using Network Manager (NM) to do static routes, and network bonding, and using FRRouting for more advanced routing options.

Personally, on the lower level stuff like network bonding and such, I prefer the NM over trying to do the same things on openwrt so far. Just hard to beat Redhat Docs on a lot of things that are more “enterprise” like. I haven’t had any reason to mess with the others, though. My research had Vyos as the more powerful option compared to pfsense, and some feature of cumulus like supporting Multichassis Link Aggregation Groups (MLAG) are really cool, and something I’d like to play with more.

No, I mean it, they really have taken the models of the British Empire and the American Empires and expanded them in a way neither at their heights could ever justify nor imagine. Surveillance system sales to authoritarian governments? Selling surveillance in other countries?! Like the CIA look like idiots spending money to get surveillance in other countries on that one. Plus they get to support the dictators keeping the peasants sending raw resources to China!

Purposely loaning money to countries with bad credit histories for leverage to get them to build ports for the Chinese empire’s trade network?! Britten spent so much time and money fighting wars, and colonizing just to be our shined on that.

And let’s not even get to started on the levels of control business have over workers there. The US robber barons use the State here looks like child’s play to the anti-union, anti-solidarity work done by the CCP. A giant union ran by the largest capitalist in the country? With authorities able to crack down on grassroots organizing on the opposite side, and the ability to send slaves from regions in need of “reeducation” all around the country. Makes the US look practically socialist on some fronts (we aren’t and have a good way to go).

China does keep it’s slaves in line more… and their recent pushes for global imperial authority have had a lot of success.
