Il really doubt that this update is the culprit: no recent updates of
lightdm nor slick-greeter (since January, for F39 and F40).
I suspect a change in your account profiles (shell for example).
Look in your ~/.xsession-errors or test with a brand new test user.

Funny way to upgrade From 39 to 41 :-) (or another way to get a broken
system :-( ).

At this point you should try to run a "dnf distro-sync" in a protected
way.
Example with systemd-run:
sudo systemd-run -u distro-sync --no-block --service-type=oneshot \
dnf -y distro-sync
Wait for this transient distro-sync unit to finish:
systemctl -n 0 status distro-sync
systemctl list-jobs
sudo journalctl -u distro-sync -f
Then reboot.
Check may be also the Optional post-upgrade tasks in:
