Alma works diligently to go through each srpm and ensure references to rhel are replaced with alma before building binaries. Rocky just rebrands rhel and rebuilds. Completely different!
Just kidding. I have no idea what kind of work is required to run a project like Rocky or Alma Linux and I appreciate the work both of them do. I just like to be stupid funny.
I just know it's important for someone (multiple someones now) to clone the enterprise system so that anyone who wants it can have it.
CentOS Stream is still that. There is a lot of FUD about it, but it is still ABI compatible with RHEL, it's still an unsupported community project like CentOS was, it is not a rolling release that people seem to think it is... It doesn't have a concept of minor versions, but it won't roll through major versions. RHEL will behave the exact same way if you don't set a release version.
