After it was pushed back last week due to blocker bugs, on Friday it was determined that Fedora 34 is now in proper shape to officially ship next week...

Although I don't like rpm based systems, It looks very attractive, and I even considered to try it!

Any one running MythTV on Wayland? Any issues?

The new desktop UI is nice. No extensions for me.

Yeah same here. I haven't used any extension for years.

There's an issue right now. Its a myth so no one can run it.

I spend half my life in pavucontrol trying to get audio to come out the correct output. Sure hope there's a PipeWire equivalent.

Thanks Fedora devs!! This is how you do a proper solid Linux Desktop. No additional extensions for me either. It's gonna be a heck of a release for sure!

I've been using it since the beta release and have had almost any issue.
The only thing that scarred me was the new Gnome UI but, in the end, I got used to it in less than 20 minutes.

F34 is just another great release.

I use pavucontrol (build from git on arch) with Pipewire just fine. I would guess as pipewire-pulse is a drop in replacement will they just fix bugs with pavucontrol instead of replacing it for no reason.

Although I don't like rpm based systems

I'd understand preference for a specific package manager, i.e. the thing a user actually interacts with, but what the heck is the deal with not liking a package format? As a casual packager, I like the .spec file format but whatever the package generator puts out (heck, you can even define .deb packages using .spec files) is completely irrelevant.
