Fedora 28 Beta Linux Distro is Finally Here (betanews.com)

An anonymous reader writes: Today, version 28 of the Fedora finally achieves beta status. After a short delay -- it was scheduled to be available a week earlier -- the distro is back on track, and looking better than ever. As is typical now, there are three versions of the operating system -- Atomic Host, Server, and Workstation. While all three have their places, normal desktop computer users will want to focus on Workstation. While there are plenty of new features (and bugs), the most exciting aspect of Fedora 28 Workstation is the inclusion of the GNOME 3.28 desktop environment.

The DNF system, the management of RPM's, has been twisted and destabilized by continuing to use "Recommands" to try and outsmart the system admin.It's a backwards incompatible change and breaks many RPM's for recompilation to older operating systems. I'm afraid that dnf is suffering the same creeping featuritis that systemd suffers from.

The switch to python 3 as the default is also in progress, which is a good idea but is destabilizing a lot of stable, older python programs which are not python 3 compatible.

What a crap article
