Although for installations contained to just Fedora content, the upgrade from release to release has been downright boring (that's a good thing). It's almost equivalent to a reboot. Perhaps there are other reasons, like some third party software not working on F32, for example. I'm generally curious about how people actually use our distributions and what prevents them from just drinking from the firehose. josh _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
