Fedora is one of the most popular Linux distributions thanks to its novelties in design and performance. For this reason, the Fedora developer group seeks every day to improve or renew the functions and features so that more and more users use this valuable system. One of its novelties is that we have the beta version of Fedora 34 to know beforehand before its official launch next year..
Fedora 34 will be available for aarch64 version with Plasma and will feature a KDE version for 64bit ARM architecture devices, it will have Wayland support for Plasma and the KDE components will now be in an X.Org-based session. Fedora 34 will have Plasma 5.20 and will give us the alternative to select the X11 session as the desktop environment.
TechnoWikis will explain the process to update Fedora 33 to Fedora 34 directly from the terminal and in this way have at hand this new edition that promises great changes..
