Fedora is one of the popular Linux distributions that is known for being very up to date, even bleeding edge, despite being a regular release and not a rolling release format like many of the bleeding edge distro.
Fedora 36 is coming soon and is an anticipated release.
The beta release is scheduled for 15th March 2022 but if it gets delayed (as sometimes happens) then it’ll be the 22nd.
The full release is expected to come out on the 19th April 2022, but again if it gets delayed it’s set for the 26th.
Let’s look at some of the features expected for Fedora 36.
#1. Linux kernel 5.17
The nightly build of Fedora 36 that I installed in a virtual machine is running a release candidate version of the upcoming 5.17 kernel. Upon release you can expect it to ship with a stable 5.17 kernel.
#2. Gnome 42
There is some exciting changes coming with the release of GNOME 42 which will be the default desktop for the workstation release of Fedora 36. (Don’t worry, you can easily install other desktop environments or download a spin.)
