RedHat's going to have a tough time

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've heard plenty of stories of sysadmins whose managers would simply not be willing to pay for rhel, and the transition would be costly. So that's why many companies actually list Rocky as the distro that they would liks to see supported by the new Linux Sysadmin they're looking for. Of course, the job listinga are written by HR, so it's all just buzzwords, but it shows that there are companies out there that just will not pay for rhel, and as a sysadmin, you will be the one to blame if you have to do a transition to Debian, for example, for no reason (from management's POV). Or at least that's what I hear.
