What is Slackware?

After a thorough development phase that entailed multiple beta iterations and release candidates to achieve the highest quality, we are thrilled to announce the arrival of the new stable version. This update comes packed with extensive enhancements throughout the system, integrating the most recent development tools alongside refreshed applications, window managers, desktop environments, and utilities. The Linux kernel has been elevated to version 4.4.14, which belongs to the long-term support 4.4.x series, ensuring that users receive consistent maintenance and security updates. We have carefully selected and refined a suite of contemporary components to facilitate a smooth and enjoyable user experience. For those who are already acquainted with Slackware, this release will evoke a sense of familiarity and comfort. If you're eager to explore Slackware 14.2 without altering your hard drive, the Slackware Live Edition presents a fantastic opportunity, enabling you to operate a complete Slackware environment straight from a CD, DVD, or USB drive. Furthermore, we offer a collection of build scripts designed for an extensive range of additional software specifically for Slackware 14.2, guaranteeing that users can tailor their experience to their individual preferences. Ultimately, this release reaffirms our commitment to uphold the tradition of reliability and outstanding performance that has always characterized Slackware, inviting both new and seasoned users to enjoy its capabilities. We believe that this version will set a new benchmark for user satisfaction in the Slackware community.

What is CentOS?

CentOS Linux is a community-supported distribution that leverages resources provided publicly through Red Hat and CentOS repositories, specifically designed for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). The main objective of CentOS is to preserve functional compatibility with RHEL, while the CentOS Project emphasizes the modification of packages to remove any branding or visual identifiers from the upstream vendor. Available at no charge, CentOS can be freely shared and redistributed by users. Each CentOS version is backed by support until the related RHEL version concludes its general support lifecycle. New CentOS versions are typically released after the rebuilding of new RHEL versions, occurring approximately every 6 to 12 months for minor updates and extending over several years for major releases. The rebuild process can take anywhere from a few weeks for minor updates to several months for significant changes, ensuring timely availability of new features. This structured approach allows users to enjoy a secure, reliable, and easily manageable Linux environment that is consistent and reproducible, ultimately nurturing a robust community around its usage and development. Additionally, the emphasis on community involvement encourages collaboration and innovation among users and developers alike.
