“Linux is the primary operating system used on artist workstations and backend services at most VFX and animation studios, but there is uncertainty about the future with the impending end of life of CentOS Linux 7, the Linux distribution most commonly used by studios.”

“Studios urgently need to choose where to turn next, and there is a real risk of fragmentation if many different choices are made which would be harmful to both studios and software vendors. There is consensus that coordinated urgent action across the community is needed to enable Linux to continue being the operating system of choice for most studios.”
