Yes, and that’s a good thing if you don’t want it to start killing processes. You have that extra time/space to deal with the out-of-memory condition yourself.
Or you can ignore that condition and continue using the system in a degraded state, with swap as “disk RAM”.
I’ve been using Alma for a while and been happy with it. Like RHEL types, it’s slightly behind on versioning, but that’s by design.
