It'd be great of they finally started supporting TPM-unlocked LUKS OOTB, by simply ticking a checkbox during install. It's ridiculous it works just like that on any other mainstream system (Windows, macOS), even *after* installation, but on Linux you have to have your system properly partitioned *before* using it, and still a pain in the arse to manage properly. On Ubuntu it even involves patching GRUB, initrd and messing around with your TPM by hand, risking a lockout everytime.

And no, a secondary password is not "proper" management.

Does anyone know whether it includes the new pulseaudio 13 release?

It has been upgraded from 12.2 to 12.99.2 which is probably the beta of 13.

People wanting Dash to Dock to work in GNOME 3.34 will need this patch.

Judging by this https://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/de...ee/Packages/p/ Fedora 31 will definitely include PA 13.

Awesome!

Now if only gnome/mutter will merge the PRs for undirecting fullscreen applications (like on X11) for 3.34.x then F31 will be awesome for games and multimedia!!

Packed with new desktop features and much better performance. Expect even more performance before release!

Why should it have 'much better' performance? I'd rather say it will have the same performance and maybe slightly worse or better.

Looking forward to this release but unfortunately my laptop failed to boot yesterday!! So now I’m looking for something better than an HP.
