CentOS vs StratumOS: What are the differences?

Developers describe CentOS as "The Community ENTerprise Operating System". The CentOS Project is a community-driven free software effort focused on delivering a robust open source ecosystem. For users, we offer a consistent manageable platform that suits a wide variety of deployments. For open source communities, we offer a solid, predictable base to build upon, along with extensive resources to build, test, release, and maintain their code. On the other hand, StratumOS is detailed as "Remote controlled Linux system". It is an operating system managed thru internet website panel (UI) and smartphone App, based on standard Linux Distribution. It runs complex stream of commands with visual mitoring interface so the user can see what it's doing at the moment. In real time you can see what is going on in the process.

CentOS and StratumOS can be primarily classified as "Operating Systems" tools.

Advice on CentOS, StratumOS

Decided

Global familiarity, free, widely used, and as a debian distro feels more comfortable when rapidly switching between local macOS and remote command lines.

CentOS does boast quite a few security/stability improvements, however as a RHEL-based distro, differs quite significantly in the command line and suffers from slightly less frequent package updates. (Could be a good or bad thing depending on your use-case and if it is public facing)
