I see that there is no longer repos for sclo after CentOS 7, Has CentOS 8 confirmed that it no longer supports sclo?

SCLs are el7, modules are el8.

The only SCLs in el8 are devtoolset ones. Everything else is modules. Unfortunately.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
