		`+ == Enabling Third-Party Software for GNOME Software`
		`+`
		`+ Fedora 35 Workstation offers a new way to enable third-party software in GNOME Software. Post-installation, a new page in the GNOME Initial Setup offers to enable third-party software repositories. If selected, third-party software repositories are available in GNOME Software from the first use.`

		`+ In Fedora 34 and earlier, an initial opt-in to third-party software (typically seen at the first run of GNOME Software) _installed_ the repositories but did not _enable_ them, requiring a user to perform an extra step before the software was available in GNOME Software.`

		`+ [NOTE]`
		`+ ====`
		`+ This change does not change the software selection on offer via the repositories; it simply makes enabling the third-party software more intuitive for the user.`
