There is a shitstorm on Reddit about this. What do you think?

It sounds like a new 'fork' of RHEL, led by the original CentOS founder.
Fantastic! I knew there were talks about it, but didn't think the reaction was going to be so quick! And the name it's even cooler :D

(the 'consider becoming a sponsor' link is pretty funny.)

Never heard of Cloud Linux before, doesn't sound too bad. I think, if I was to change my home server distro, I would go back to Debian or try OpenSuse though.

My (tiny, but useful) VPS is on CentOS; I think I'll just migrate it to Debian. At this point it just runs a matrix synapse server (a Python application), postgres & nginx; & I kind of prefer the Debian folder structure for these anyway.
I'm actually slowly moving into managed services (thegood.cloud, posteo.de, codeberg.org, wallabag.it, bitwarden.com, matrix.org), nnot enough time to keep them all nicely updated, backed up, etc and my friends/family not interested in these services anyway. Less incentive for me to have them. It's not the same level of customization, but the only real thing that I miss are the bridges for Matrix and the integration with Jitsi.
At home, I'm running a little CentOS server with Jellyfin, Pi-Hole, etc, which I will move to Rocky Linux next year if everything goes well or directly to Debian 11. Or maybe I do the change to CentOS Stream and forget about it.

Yeah I gave up on Nextcloud for a similar reason (& couldn't get my family to use Jitsi either). Self-hosted & open to the outside world takes a lot of work.
