News: Fedora 36 beta released.

Fedora 36 beta was released and I tested it today.
First of all, Fedora 36 is still in pre-release mode and you should be careful to back up your data before upgrading it has a rollback option just in case.
I haven't seen any significant differences in browsing, and overall it seems faster.
The upgrade commands are the same but the installation process seems more complex.
# dnf upgrade --refresh
# dnf autoremove
# dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade -y
# dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=36 --allowerasing
# dnf system-upgrade reboot
# cat /etc/os-release 
Let's fix the install process:
# dnf system-upgrade clean
# symlinks -r -d /usr 
This is ascreenshot take on my HP Compaq 6710b laptop, you can see the Workstation Edition Prerelease.
