I'm sorry, leaving any other vendor to switch to Oracle does not compute. Error! Error! -

Someone is trying to petition #IBM / #Red_Hat to give #CentOS back to community control instead of making it the upstream of Red Hat Enterprise Linux ( #RHEL ).
I think they're wasting their time. -

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. -

(I actually paid for a CD set.) Followed shortly by the old #Red_Hat 6.1, then RH 6.2, then #Caldera OpenLinux 2.2.
When Caldera bought Santa Cruz Operation and renamed themselves The #SCO Group ... abandoned their Linux distro and started suing Linux vendors, I moved to #Fedora. -

I remember learning to install #Apache and #PHP from source 20+ years ago. Can't remember whether we actually compiled #MySQL or just extracted a precompiled tarball. On pre-RHEL #Red_Hat Linux and #FreeBSD.

Was fun, but upgrading could be tricky. -

Also, are you aware of any #Red-Hat derivatives that are #SystemD free? Or are such distributions only available in #Debian and #Gentoo families of Linux distros? -
notklaatu (klaatu)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Mar-2019 18:05:41 UTC notklaatu Hey do you know #xml and/or Publican, write in [mostly] proper English, and live in #Linux?
If you do, there's a job waiting for you as a technical editor. Let me know if you apply and I'll officially refer you.

notklaatu (klaatu)'s status on Friday, 08-Mar-2019 17:57:32 UTC notklaatu Hey tech writers, stop the freelance madness! If you're a tech writer or editor, with Linux skills, and a working knowledge of Docbook, let me know.
My department is hiring! I'll recommend you!

I came from #Win95 to #SuSE, then #Red_Hat (this was before the #RHEL / #Fedora split), #Caldera OpenLinux, Fedora, #WinXP, #LinuxMint and others. Over the years, whenever I use a #GNOME based system, I'm soon dissatisfied, but #KDE mostly looks and works the way I expect.

I'm not saying everyone will (or should) like it. -

Sheogorath ? (sheogorath)'s status on Monday, 30-Apr-2018 06:50:04 UTC Sheogorath ? Sounds like I have to try something soon:
https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/look-vdo-new-linux-compression-layer
Unix makes it again: Having a de-duplication layer as own block device allows you to do a lot of different things on top. Just keep in mind that it really slows your storage operations down.
But also good news: You can put LVM on it and LVM can handle it by using an SSD as caching layer :)

Since then, nearly every #Linux distro has gotten way easier to install and I haven't kept track of #BSD installation processes (but for example, #ArchLinux and #NetBSD were both more difficult than average, while #Gentoo is easy, but very long).
