@geniusmusing You're right. Reading the blog post, it sounds like #CentOS Stream isn't a buggy beta distro after all, but instead, it moves CentOS to be slightly ahead of #RHEL (because of the continuous delivery part).
I don't imagine that CStream is going to have modern versions of included software very much ahead of RHEL's major version bumps. (I go back to that often, because I've always need a 3rd party software repo, due to the advanced age of the versions included in RHEL & CentOS repos. The software is often so old that the upstream project no longer supports it.)

That will affect some organizations that are using #CentOS as "no-fee #Red_Hat", but the truth is, many orgs have to seek out 3rd party repos because the software included in RH and CentOS is so old. If CentOS Stream is still stable, it might lead to an increase in users.
I'll see about installing it on one of my servers at home soon.
