I don't know about this, as I don't make use of the dock.
Hopefully someone else will know a way to do what you want.
If there isn't an easier way to move the dock, maybe the
dash-to-dock extension could be useful?
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/307/dash-to-dock/
That doesn't look to be packaged for fedora, so you'd need
to install it from the extensions site or package it. :)
Thanks, yes, it's a good suggestion but not what I want.
Is there a good reason the dock has been moved almost as far as possible from the most sensible hot corner? I thought the whole idea is that the top-left corner is fastest for most people to get to, and then the dock was right there. Why would it be on the bottom now? It defeats the purpose.

The alt-tab extension isn't needed (and apparently hasn't
been for some time -- I only noticed that around f33 or f34,
as I used it as well). You can set alt-tab to switch
windows instead of applications.
This can be done via the keyboard shortcuts UI, but I find
it's simpler to do via gsettings. I haven't updated to f35
yet, but for f33 and f34, this is what I do (I don't expect
it has changed, but caveat emptor):
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications "[]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications-backward "[]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows "['<Alt>Tab', '<Super>Tab']"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows-backward "['<Alt><Shift>Tab', '<Super><Shift>Tab']"
Thanks! I found it in the keyboard shortcuts settings and swapped them.

I still see the openweather extension in the repos for f35:
$ dnf -q list gnome-shell-extension-openweather | cat
Available Packages
gnome-shell-extension-openweather.noarch
1-0.49.20210509gitd714eb1.fc35 updates
Is it not available or not installable for you?
