I think I must have woken up in Bizzaro world today.

"...not going to fix bugs in 2.26 and earlier but Fedora will backport
bug fixes. ..."

I'm sure this makes sense to you but to me it reads that Fedora will
backport all the fixes the upstream developer is going to make... which
is zero!

No matter, the bottom line is that the problem I reported is not going
to get fixed in F10 which means that I have to swap over to Windows to
use LinkedIn until I change to F11 which I'll do once F12 is released.
Even then, the issue might still be there. <Sigh>
