  • Alma Linux is another Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 repackage, like CentOS/Rocky Linux: https://almalinux.org/ I've been very happy with it. As they were founded by an already existing company (CloudLinux OS) they had a bit of a leg up on Rocky when getting started, and seem to be able to push out updates alittle bit faster which is why I choose them over Rocky.
