I can update the docs page as suggested in the relevant topic. Do you think adding a section explaining how to upgrade Docker CE from Fedora CoreOS 40 to Fedora CoreOS 41 would also be helpful?

Thanks!

Yes, probably a good thing to add as well. I'm not sure if we can make something better than reset/rebase/overlay, but having it documented would be good.
