The upcoming GNOME 44 series' first unstable release has been made available for testing.

GNOME 44.alpha released

GNOME 44.alpha is now available. This is the first unstable release leading to 44 stable series.

An GNOME OS install image is not available for this release due
to a handful of issues, but you can still grab a Nightly image from  os.gnome.org which is a close approximation of the alpha release.
