I’m in the market to find a new distro that is similar enough to Fedora that switching won’t be as laborious as I’ve had it before. I keep hearing POP!_os is a good choice but I’m going to as the community what they think is good.

Consider PCLinuxOS. ‘PLOS’ has the same look and feel of the ent Linuxes, but
-
as a child of mageia/mandriva from mandrake and conectiva, it’s derivation from RH is super long ago so it’s closer to rhel5 for well-built well-tested tools.
-
it has maaaaassive lib/app support range, like Axel Rose’s vocal range compared to EL’s Bruce Springsteen. No stream or other crap shenanigans aside from etc/alternatives.
-
No systemd. Weird how startups are fast and reliable
It can yum cron like a badass.
Caveats:
- if you liked building vagrants on mageia, you need to help them on pclos. They have no clue there, and the skillet seems to be fading fast.
- people who support sysv startup are getting more lazy and ditching it.
- people who support last week’s version of anything are no more prevalent in pclos, so there’s no magical fix for “10 second tom” devs here either.
