From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Not a great timing to move to something RHEL-based!
If I may ask, why not Debian? You're already familiar with 99% of the distribution, as it's the base for Ubuntu.
debian is the alpha. and will be the omega.
I’m a long time Ubuntuee making the move to Debian. Already made the move on desktop, servers to follow over time. Love raspbian on my Pi4…
It’s just too familiar at this point :)
My main issue with Debian is LTS support, I usually run like Ubtunu LTS and I don't upgrade until it isn't supported. The stability of LTS is great.
Debian also has LTS, for at least 5 years, after which an organization or company can step up to provide further updates. For example, the previous release will be maintained until 2026 and the one before that is being maintained until next year by the LTS team.
