AlmaLinux 8.5 now stable on ppc64le

AlmaLinux, one of the "new" classic CentOSes after CentOS was reworked into the a-bit-more-fizzy CentOS Stream, has now updated their 8.5 beta release for ppc64le officially to stable status. This is probably your best bet if you want a no-cost RHEL-like experience on your OpenPOWER hardware with the stability reputation you used old-school CentOS for. Release notes and Live ISO images are available. Currently AlmaLinux 8 has a support commitment until at least 2029.
