I may have been the only one using CentOS for weewx (before switching to a 
Raspberry Pi about a year ago.)  I note it's still mentioned as a distro in 
the weewx documentation, with RedHat and Fedora.  CentOS was to be 
supported until 31 May 2029. 

Since the takeover of RedHat by IBM, this has been shortened to 31 December 
2021.  If anyone is still using CentOS for weewx, it's probably a good idea 
to migrate to another distro soon.  There's a movement to replace CentOS 
with "Rocky Linux", but there's no timeframe for its deployment:

https://wiki.rockylinux.org/

The "strength" of CentOS was stability because it is a clone of RedHat.  I 
still use CentOS for other things than weewx, and rather than wait to see 
if Rocky Linux is successful, I'm moving to Ubuntu LTS 2020, which has at 
least 5 years of support/stability.
