The team from Fedora announced the release of a new development snapshot of the distribution. The Fedora 34 Beta distribution comes with a number of important changes, such as GNOME 40, the replacement of PulseAudio with PipeWire, and the default Btr file system that allows transparent compression.
"Since Fedora Linux 33 brought BTRFS as the default file system for variations on desktop, Fedora Linux 34 Beta enables transparent compression for more disk space.

With a foundation for future improvements, we aim to continue to add to these capabilities in future releases.
