Thank you for your response Martin. We should probably consider moving to the alternatives that you mentioned or Ubuntu. Centos was no longer a Community effort after RH was bought by a propriatory company.
The vast majority of open source software is developed by companies like Red Hat/IBM (IBM was a significant Linux contributor long before they bought Red Hat; the original SCO lawsuit was about code IBM contributed to the Linux kernel). That's not just true of Linux; a lot of FreeBSD development is done by a few companies (sometimes imperfectly, as seen with the VPN mess just before FreeBSD 13 release).
