FYI - Fedora 31 continued not trying to "make my life easier" by inventing new packaging and containerization in the base distro. I think the folks who make Ubuntu think it is a consumer product.  Making it harder to self-configure in developer-hacker friendly ways.

I expect Fedora32 will have Wireguard (if not earlier).
