Fedora Linux 44 Beta is out and all the Atomic Desktops variants are ready for testing: https://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-linux-44-beta/

We have two important removals for this cycle:
- Dropping FUSE2 libraries and thus support for AppImages that require them.
- Dropping old polkit pkla rules support

Latest GNOME, KDE Plasma and Budgie releases are also ready.
