Why couldn't you spell out fork properly. Or were you referring to fsck?
Seems to me that the better question to have been asked
by the OP would have been: What was WRONG with yum?
and: What does dnf fix that was
broken in yum?
My view: The only thing that was wrong with yum, was it being
work-in-progress, when its maintainer passed away.
Later somebody fell into the common trap of believing a rewrite was
superior/easier than gradual improvements. IMO, dnf once more proved
this consideration wrong.
