There are several options. Alma/Rocky, Fedora, Debian, BSD, just to name a few.

Debian Testing/Stable with backports/Stable. These I recommend.

I use Ubuntu for everything (including at work, tens of thousands machines) and it's great

If RHEL-based is no longer an option for OP, how would of all things Ubuntu be the alternative?

What’s motivating you to leave?

Personal and general purpose: KDE Neon (yeah yeah)

Servers: IDK, now. Probably going to check out SUSE.

Debian's pretty good, but you can always use RHEL with a free account too

I'm super happy with OpenSUSE. Cannot recommend it enough, having it on my home server for 2+ years and never had the slightest of issues

That's where I'm headed.

Devuan over Debian for stability and speed.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
