dnf install chrome-gnome-shell

The old extensions no longer work!
Delete them through gnome-extensions-app and be sure they are installed using dnf:

gnome-shell-extension-places-menu

Reinstall instead of Upgrade instructions:
If you are forced to reformat any disks:.
/boot must be on ext4 and one giga!
/boot/efi must be fat16 Efi system partition and 200 mega.
/ and swap; I used lvm 120 giga.
DANGER - iptables does not run automatically anymore. It was changed to iptables-legacy.
You need to convert to nftables and enable and start that service or you are unprotected!
They don't tell you this and you could be running your system for months before you find out!
/bin/bash /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall
iptables-save >/tmp/iptables.dump
iptables-restore-translate -f /tmp/iptables-dump >/etc/nftables/firewall.nft
iptables-save
nft list ruleset
DANGER - php8.0 gets installed
Older Joomla, Craft and WordPress sites will not work - blankscreen!
You ma need to install php 7.4 fromthe remi repo!
Fedora 36 now by default ignores /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts!
Uncomment: plugins=keyfile,ifcfg-rh
in file /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf.
or
migrate to keyfiles.
check keyfiles and network-script files:
nmcli -f TYPE,FILENAME,NAME conn
nmcli conn show
nmcli conn show --active
dnf remove NetworkManager-initscripts-ifcfg-rh
sshd by default does not allow remote login by root!
block login from outside world in nftables and then add to file /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
PermitRootLogin yes
and systemctl restart sshd
