For the record you can still upgrade from the command line with the DNF system upgrade plugin: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/dnf-system-u...

Once started the upgrade process is preatty much the same as the GUI update - download all needed packages, check if there are no conflicts with what is already installed, then reboot to minimalistic systemd target and run the update here.

Doing it like this makes sure that packaging conflicts, network connectivity or unrelated processes running on the machine can break your system.
