    Wow, haven't used Fedora since Fedora Core 4. Is dnf the new yum?

    I thought so too.

    Not excused. Current version was released ahead of schedule. You don't even try to "find" it.

    I really don't understand what it is with this obsession about "delays"... I mean the Fedora Project sets a date to release but at the same time they want to make sure a new release is usable for the most important workflows they identified. This is especially important for bugs in the installer because a non-functional installer means user can not install the fixes later on. Ok, that often means a delay of a few weeks. But so what?

    On the one hand people complain if software ships with obvious bugs, on the other hand they want all the features now. To me that is an impossible request and really shows the lack of understand how open source projects work: In the end a lot of people are putting in some of their free time (that is true even for many RedHat employees) to provide something useful and then some random dude on the internet is annoyed by a 2 week delay.

    The only thing that still gives me hope here is that most people are not like that and I got plenty of positive feedback for my open source contributions but please stop paying attention to "delays in Fedora releases". Probably Michael should just stop posting about the delays at all - just mention when the final release is out.

    Well, with the sole exception of Thunderbird 115's RSS functionality regressing to being utter crap and unreliable as my only complaint since upgrading to Fedora 39.

    I installed dnf5 on Federa 38 beta from the standard repos (as mentioned and clarified above.) Much faster for sure.

    DNF5 was deferred (will be introduced later (probably for F41)), but the work around DNF5 identified a couple of places in common with DNF3 that were updated so that DNF3 (and DNF5) have seen improvements.

    It's normally available as a download from Fedora repos as "dnf install dnf5". The page you refer to is outdated since F38, as there it got available without the copr repo.
    Good to know. Thanks
