Hell, even in my homelab I’ve moved past wanting new shiny. I just want NFS to play nicely and stop silently failing with nary a log message.

Playing around with distros and bleeding edge is fun until you just want the OS to get out of your way so you can do stuff. Then you regret your decisions.

I don’t run Arch, BTW. Debian.


So if stability is a strict requirement why are you dependent on an OS that you have no contractual obligation with? I mean if the community OS model was working for the CentOS team why go under the RedHat umbrella? My guess is going to be people demanding enterprise support without enterprise licensing costs[1].

"In 2014, the CentOS development team still had a distribution with far more marketshare than resources."
