Doesn’t seem like there is much in the update. Am I missing something?

This title is at least more comprehensive: 9to5linux.com/fedora-linux-39-beta-released-with-…

(Gnome 45, kernel 6.5* …)

Way better article, you’re right!

The main thing is DNF5 which should speed up DNF significantly

From the post:

In some ways, this release might seem notable largely for what isn’t here. We’d planned to update the DNF package manager to a new, speedier version. We also hoped to showcase a long-awaited refresh to the user interface for Anaconda, our installation program. However, we decided these things just weren’t ready in time.

Fedora 40 seems more interesting to me (Dropping X11, Wayland-only Plasma, DNF5)

no DNF5, it is nor ready as they said.

Not in 39, but could be in 40.

I’m glad they decided to not ship beta-quality software to users, even if it makes for an unexciting release. I like Fedora because it’s (mostly) stable.

Idk Gnome 45 is a pretty nice visual overhaul on the “exciting” front too!
