They are very similar, but will diverge quickly.

Right, beta freeze starts tomorrow... so rate of change into f34 will
slow way down. 

Rawhide already has a 5.12 git snapshot kernel (where f34 has a 5.11.0
final). Tools and libraries will also keep being updated in rawhide,
which will mean even packages that are otherwise the exact same version
don't have the exact same output.

Sure, lots of people move off to the newly branched fedora at this time
and follow it out until release. Then re-upgrade to rawhide and repeat.
