I used to use CentOS on my servers and Ubuntu on the workstations. I also had a substantial number of Windows servers running Windows Server VMs for various server roles.

Now that Fedora and many server versions of RH are free, I’d consider migrating over to them, although I was switching more to Azure with Linux-based VMs running roles since I didn’t have to worry about those losing power... Yeah, I’d switch more to RH locally.

IF I was still working.

After I retired, the dude who replaced me switched over to 100% Windows servers, because he didn’t want to learn Linux!

On this desktop I’m using Linux Mint LMDE 5 (elsie) and it’s very nice based on Debian
