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'm not entirely sure there are a ton of people/companies that are considering rhel licences vs rocky. All the companies I've worked for are considering debian vs rocky at this point. Not huge but 1000-5000 system type companies. I'd guess that's a huge bulk of the market that's using rocky, and also up steaming patches and big reports.
