Moving away from RHEL based distros, whats good ? - Lemmy

Hi, mostly i use REHL based distros like Centos/Rocky/Oracle for the solutions i develop but it seems its time to leave… What good server/minimal distro you use ? Will start to test Debian stable.

Debian stable. The mix of having a stable host but being able to pull in flatpak / appimage / docker containers with newer software is awesome.

Debian yes, but don't install from flatpaks or docker. Neither is secure.

AppImage can be secure of the release is signed.

Flatpak is never secure because it doesn’t support signing of releases at all

Can you elaborate on this? I ask because I build my own flatpaks, and signing is part of the publishing process.

You should switch to something that's actually secure. Flatpak devs haven't addressed this since 2015, and I doubt they ever will. They don't seem to care about security.
