They also make Fedora which is the distro of choice for me and hundreds of thousands of others.

And I use RHELlikes (Alma/Rocky) in my homelab just cause its similar to Fedora and Red Hat's documentation is much better than reading random blogs on how to do stuff on Ubuntu/Debian.

Are you a customer though? I.e. have you paid any money to RedHat?

Documentation is good but... that's generic documentation about how software works, RHEL-specific stuff is maybe 5% of it.

I often hit it from search results (mostly for software made/supported by RHEL) and it works fine for Debian

Also, OS upgrades work
