Fedora 32 Looking At Turning Up SquashFS Compression For Smaller Install Media
While Fedora 32 is already making it so CD / DVD install issues shouldn't block releases given most users are doing USB-based installations for the past number of years, Fedora is still trying to decrease the amount of space the install media takes up regardless of CD/DVD/USB media.
A late change proposal for Fedora 32 is improving the compression ration of the SquashFS file-system on the installation media. The proposal by Red Hat's Bohdan Khomutskyi is to tune the SquashFS compression settings to yield a better compression ratio and/or reduction of CPU usage at build time.

Fedy – Install Third-Party Software in Fedora
Fedy (previously called as Fedora Utils) is a post-installation script written in bash, especially for Fedora. It is released under GNU General Public License.
Fedy aims at providing a standard Fedora installation with additional applications, utilities, and codes. A lot of applications and codecs that are not shipped by Fedora due to one or another reason, Fedy fills that gap.
The latest updated version of Fedy is 5.0 and it also supports Fedora 22 (Released on May 26, 2015), though a few features on Fedora 22 may not work as of now.
