What is the excitement? Rocky Linux or the idea to run many OSes in a VM in full screen?
With respect to the last item, I moved my -work- to VMs in 2018 with Ubuntu, ZFS and Virtualbox. Partly on my previous Phenom II X4 B97 (8 GB) and nowadays on my Ryzen 3 2200G (16 GB) and HP Elitebook 8460p (8 GB). Desktop and laptop run exactly the same VMs and weekly I synchronize the VMs from desktop to laptop with ZFS -send - ssh receive-, basically the default lz4 compressed, incremental backup.
- Desktop runs a nvme-SSD (512 GB; 3400/2300 MB/s) and 1 TB and 500 GB HDDs. One datapool with 2 striped 500GB partitions and another datapool with the remaining 500 GB partition, both supported by a shared 128 GB sata-SSD cache (L2ARC).
- Laptop runs since today on a new 2 TB HDD. I intend to add a 120GB sata-SSD (L2ARC), its drive-caddy is on the way from China. The L2ARC is needed to get SSD boot and program load speeds. For normal operation the L1ARC (memory cache) is sufficient.

Can someone please make or help me find a program i install on a new hard drive that is like a multiboot os os, mosos, that once i install it allows me to install and will after i install a new os, it just adds new installation to list and i can also run. Then if i make a partition and put iso files on it and it will run those also, maybe it even lets me make partitions too, does this exist and why not if not, wouldnt this make it easy for people to try different distros way easier? So does it exist or can it not be done? Thank you

Careful with the PIP and flatpak: they each violate best practice (single source of truth) for installables, and they both impair validation of deliverables. This risks consistency, which itself kills repeatability, and suddenly your box is as snowflake as if you've configure/make/make-installed it.
This may not be valuable now - and even when it blows up, many people don't realize the cause - but do keep it in-mind so you're in a good spot to upgrade the supply-chain later.

Appreciate Rocky Linux, but I feel Stream being -rolling release- will be amazing at work. We FINALLY moved the last of our monolithic servers to CentOS 7. Would be amazing to just pin applications such as Jenkins or other internal only tools to a specific version, and allow the others to roll. Most of our shop have switched to Stream in our Dev boxes, and looking to move forward with Stream to Staging -soon-.

Somehow I feel that your enthusiasm about this rocky -thing- will fade away in 2-3 months. Your hype-ish presentation was not successful in proving it's -better- than CentOS, let alone your current Arch !
Lots of successful distros started as -by the community, for the community- and ended up being sold to various companies. So how are so sure this one will be different ?!?

Rocky sounds interesting, and timely. We're a Suse shop mailyy, but driven by many of the systems at work, Hadoop not least of them, were going REL slowly, and I have a new desktop to build, pending the office move, as corporate are doing a power grab so we're moving off desktop hardware onto workstation hardware supplied by a different division. Time for a change.

I'll fully admit that I think Linux is a great idea. However, I can't find a reason to actually use it on my main computer. It's great if someone just need an old pc capable of viewing facebook or email, and want it for free. But for any gamer, or anyone else really, Linux just isn't it.

Great work! I decided to follow your footsteps and use RHEL on the desktop as well. Surprisingly a great desktop experience. Really shows that distro doesn't matter as long as you hit that intermediate stage already. Thanks for the guide

The first linux distro I was happy with was openSuse, but I could never really leave winblows. Then a year ago I accidentally found one of your videos, and now Manjaro is my daily driver. I'm curious of your new project.
