I certainly agree with you on this point!

Personally, while I haven't made an actual decision on which way I'm going with 
my own projects, I'm currently leaning toward Oracle Linux.  I installed it on 
a laptop a couple of days ago and what I got was exactly what I get when I 
install Centos on a laptop.  Even my little script to convert a stock 
installation into my custom setup worked as-is, and what I ended up with was 
exactly what I was expecting to see.

I don't have any particular love for Oracle, but since they pay X number of 
people to keep Oracle Linux current with RHEL and updated, they shouldn't have 
any problems with burn-out or a lack of long-term interest on the part of 
volunteers that may (or may not) become an issue over the course of time with a 
community-driven distribution like Rocky.

But for the moment I'm more-or-less just sitting on my hands, waiting to see 
how all of this shakes out over the course of the next few months before I take 
any action to change anything.

Frankly, I'm kind of hoping that Rocky turns out to be "the new Centos", but it 
seems too early in the game to make the decision to depend on it.  That may 
change over the course of the next few months.
