Seems to work, however the utilities still report being from iproute2-5.8.0 instead of 5.9.0.
For example:
# ls -l /usr/sbin/ip
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 714808 Dec 4 10:23 /usr/sbin/ip
# ip -V
ip utility, iproute2-5.8.0
Working well so far.
Works.
Everything I use htop for seems to work fine.

Works.
It seems likely that the problem I am experiencing is the same as the one reported here: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/423
After replacing pulseaudio with pipewire-pulseaudio and rebooting, my system has no sound and the gnome sound icon is missing. It seems that pipewire.service is not able to correctly start on system boot.
In order for sound to work again and to restore the sound icon I have to restart pipewire.service and then pipewire-pulse.service.
Example of failed pipewire.service after every boot:

Besides the service and socket not automatically starting, pipewire-pulseaudio still conflicts with the following packages:
kde-settings-pulseaudio
plasma-pa
steam (from rpmfusion)
While I understand rpmfusion isn't at all an official repo, and this may not technically be an issue with pipewire, this conflict needs to be fixed before pipewire can be widely tested on Fedora. Steam has a large install base and it is important to allow testing audio in games with pipewire.

Has worked fine for about a day of normal desktop usage.
Works fine so far on my Dell Latitude 7490 (DELL081C:00 044E:121F Touchpad).
After replacing pulseaudio, the pipewire service and socket are not enabled. Hence by default this will break users' audio without manual intervention.
Works for me.
