zswap on the other hand discovers that certain pages have not been in

The result is that with zswap, the recently used pages are in fast
compressed memory, and stuff which has not been used for hours is
on disk. As it should be.

Patrick O'Callaghan:
Fascinating article. I suggest people read the section on Fedora before
deciding to change.
So what's the current default setup for swapping with Fedora? (i.e.
Fresh install on a blank drive, you haven't customised anything.) I'm
still on Fedora 42 on the other PC.
zram with no swap partition.
