CentOS 7 - Why Did [Almost] Everyone Switch to Fedora?
-
@fiyafly You do have to harden your server but that is not difficult. There are a few things you do and if you do them it makes it pretty hard for your server to get compromised.
-
@jmoore I fully agree. It's just convincing them of that lol.
-
I think this is visible alot here in ML cause of Scott and the other guy who is knowledgeable but not as nice as Scott, but that does not mean it is globally. I still love Centos and prefer using it as my main server OS.

I hate to admit this but now that I think about it I don't think ive restarted either one in about 2 years now. I just keep them updated and they keep running.
Hope you put your flame suit on before you typed that.
Though you seem to have gotten away easy.

Another great feature from Fedora Server 28 is the use of Modularity.

@brrabill Yeah I was expecting something lol. I mean I keep them updated and check resources from time to time but never any issues.

@black3dynamite That was an interesting read.

https://fedoramagazine.org/modularity-fedora-28-server-edition/Thanks. I meant to look into that feature. I saw it highlighted on the fedora site.

@jmoore @wrx7m There's also an article about how to use it too.

@fiyafly Centos may be more stable, I can't really say one way or another. However, I will say my 2 fedora servers have continually without a problem. I hate to admit this but now that I think about it I don't think ive restarted either one in about 2 years now. I just keep them updated and they keep running.
Wouldn't you need to restart for updates (kernel) to take effect?

Yeah, I meant here on ML. I should have specified.

I'm all for what works the best for a given use-case. It's not always going to be one a one-size-fits-all kind of thing. We understand that (I hope).
