Welp.
Time to reimage my server I guess.
>I restarted my web server 10 years ago
enjoy your security vulnerabilities
I leave for another job just a few months before the servers finally needs to be upgraded
It's more than likely that this new RHEL/CentOS release will have support for their new Stratis storage system. It's a frontend (I think?) that handles software raid, LVM, XFS, and other stuff to essentially create a ZFS or Btrfs-like experience.

Just in time to update the servers at you're new job in an unfamiliar setting.

I hope PHP 5.3 could be easily rebuilt to run on that.

pick your side
this, I never understood the appeal of "the newest version" when an old stable patched version does the job. only must have features justify upgrading.
I'm thankful that the pace of software has greatly slowed down (in a good way). The changes between RHEL5->RHEL6 are huge compared to RHEL6->RHEL7, and the changes between RHEL7->RHEL8 are minimal IMO.
Same goes for Debian stable releases. I could probably run my desktops/laptops on Debian stable and not feel like I'm behind the times in 1+ years.

I'm rebuilding my VPS. Should I go with ubuntu again or centos?
same, our shit CAD software needs dynlibs only present on CentOS 6

>Imagine updating the system without the need of rebooting it
Feels good still running rhel5 and an ubuntu 9 server...
