I've successfully moved from F31 to F32 = on 5 desktops (which I run KVM
on), 2 laptops and another 11 VMs that run on the desktops (monitoring,
mail IPA servers, firewalls). I run with rpmfusion and BTRFS a for my
main storage machine nd f32 has been an absolute delight for me. But:
I don't have any NVidia cards I run Fedora on.
F31 was good; it had a few odd quirks in GNOME that f32 seems to have fixed.
I usually get the itch to upgrade at least one canary machine around the
beta time, once the add-on packages from places like rpmfusion and
negativo17 get built. And then upgrade the rest between the lull
between the GO announcement and actual publication.
I don't mind dealing with occasional problems, but I haven't really had
to do that this cycle at all. Very smooth, which is astounding
considering the breadth of stuff that exists in Fedora and how fast it
all moves.
