Regular Pleskian
@admin - the most important reason here is that AlmaLinux is NOT supported as an OS by Virtuozzo. Say you are preventing Virtuozzo users from continuing to use Plesk ... (and more & more are now/near future migrating their Centos 7 Servers ...)
We have always used Virtuozzo as virtualization software with Plesk as the front end for our customers ...
Until now, although VzLinux existed, we only ever used Centos as the OS under Plesk, simply because it was defacto standard. Now that you can no longer use Centos, this will change.
Especially when you see what measures Virtuozzo is taking to make it easy for us administrators to switch to VzLinux. (See the comments from @mbroemme )
And please consider - there is no extra work for you to give VzLinux to the supported OS. since both VzLinux and AlmaLinux are binary compatible to Red Hat Enterprise. Say both are technically equivalent for Plesk ... say it would already work out of the Box ... it's just not officially supported ... which means one can't use it as Plesk would decline any Support if there are Problems within Plesk ...
Plesk... or better put; Oakley Capital, does not like this "extra" work and they also do not care about their customers.
As a matter of fact; I expect that there will be a new price increase (again) sooner than later with Plesk or any other piece of software that this investment company has acquired; like WHMCS early this month. This resulted in a gigantic loss of users (e.g. licenses).
Oh well. The future of the hosting business looks dim in the wake of investment companies like Oakley Capital... Sighs.
