Alma Linux has always been faster for releases since the beginning. I believe their first release was 8.3 and was very ahead of Rocky and they've maintained that pace to this day. Security updates are within a day or two, point releases are within 7 days and I think the 9.0 release was less than a month.

This is probably because the project was initially founded by Cloud Linux, which I believe already had the expertise to do RedHat clones and basically donated the setup - whereas Rocky started from scratch from what I can tell.

point releases are usually within 3 days and 9.0 release was within 10 days :)

The Alma Linux team does incredible work, it's my goto distro since it was first released :)
