“September 12 marks an exciting day in GNOME history - the release of GNOME 3.34. Although new features abound, the standout change in this release is speed! Seriously. But don't take our word for it, you'll be able to try it in a few days. "

Those few days have already passed and you can already try. As indicated in the release note, the second RC of GNOME v3.34 can be tested by installing the Flatpak package that have uploaded to Flathub. Personally, it is not something that I recommend for several reasons: one is because we are talking about software in testing phase and another is because the idea of installing a beta graphical environment as a Flatpak package does not appeal to me. Of course, if you decide to do it, do not hesitate to leave your experiences in the comments.
