Enterprise Linux on desktop?

Anyone using enterprise Linux on their desktop such as RHEL, Alma, Rocky, CentOS etc.?

I’m curious if it’s easy to use for this purpose or if the older packages are a pain.

    Hmm … I’m definitely not going to use RHEL for anything I’m not explicitly ordered to by my employer, but the thought of using Ansible or similar to set up my home system is interesting… I may have to give that a try, and I’ve got a new system I’m building

      You can also use Ansible with just about anything, as long as you can connect to it over SSH or with a REST API. You don’t have to use RHEL, specifically. I use it for “”“declarative”“” package management on my Arch system.

        Oh yeah, I know that part… Sorry, I can see how that could look like I think that’s a RHEL specific feature
