CentOS Stream - How will this impact you?

CentOS Stream represents a shift from being a mere rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) to a version that allows more community contributions and provides a stable ecosystem for application deployment. This change includes the introduction of application streams, which enable users to lock installations to specific major component versions while allowing for early access to community-contributed bug fixes. Overall, CentOS remains a stable operating system for enterprise use, but with improved opportunities for community engagement and application management.
