I understand why people use RH and Rocky and even Oracle: the rpm wranglers. However its not for me.
My earliest mainstream distro was RH when they did it just for fun (pre IBM) and then I slid slightly sideways towards Mandrake. I started off with Yggdrassil.
I have to do jobs involving RH and co and its just a bit of a pain dealing with elderly stuff. Tomcat ... OK you can have one from 1863. There is a really good security back port effort but why on earth start off with a kernel that is using a walking stick.
Perhaps I am being unkind but for me the RH efforts are (probably) very stable and a bit old.
It's not the distro itself either. The users seem to have snags with updating it.
I (very generally) find that RH shops are the worst at [redacted]
