If you care at all about Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS, yes. See the Dec 2020 announcement. https://blog.centos.org/2020/12/future-is-centos-stream/

Tell me you don't understand what those distros are without telling me you don't understand what those distros are.

Have you searched this question online? It's been asked thousands of times. See Sander Van Vugt's books and videos. 2nd best thing to the official resources (if not better in some ways).

And use Linux for work, what's your point? You seem to imply Linux is only for personal.

That's not how failing hardware works. Recycle and use another piece of non failing hardware.

Please just nail laptops and get where they are in stock and new parts keep being released before you spread yourself too thin.

Reminds me of the KDE guy who quit Red Hat when they used to do exactly that (make KDE behave like GNOME) 22 years ago.

Can you use snaps with autofs/NFS yet?

 

Does NixOS have a way to PXE many machines via a kickstart or preseed equivalent? I'm curious to experiment with it in the context of a University environment and we use either Cobbler or Foreman for host provisioning.

Also curious what the best practice is for config management. I only know enough to know there's a nix config file that declares everything. Does this completely supplant puppet/salt/ansible, or do you use them together?

Thanks for any tips!
