> IBM killed Centos for profit.
That process began happening long before the IBM acquisition when Red Hat hired Karanbir Singh (CentOS's maintainer) in 2014.

IIRC, I saw something about it on HN at the time, but did not read it, being busy.
So they acquihired CentOS, but in doing that they changed its target from "community of users [that don't want to pay for RHEL]" to "community of developers that target RHEL". CentOS Stream is much better (though not perfect) for the latter population.
That said, there are many people using CentOS Stream in production (including myself).
