Is Fedora 32 more stable than 33 or vice versa, as on November, 2020?
While a release is not EOL it tends to stay fairly well synchronized to the latest release. For example, 33 and 32 are running the same basic kernel.
If a user were to take present state of Rawhide, but not update risky packages, would there be any benefit to that ? Meaning to manually update, skipping some packages.
If your care-about is reliability I would leave Rawhide alone. Selective updating often causes issues as old packages can end up blocking updates that you want eventually.
Are some Desktop Environments in Fedora more stable ?
That's an emotive question to be sure. I find Xfce the most solid, especially on Rawhide where GNOME 3rd party extensions regularly break during development releases of GNOME (which Rawhide gets).
What are some packages that are the most risky to update ? systemd ? mesa ? kernel ?
I find release versions tend to be pretty good overall. Your mileage may vary. I would update everything always. Unless you want to fiddle and file bug reports I would stay clear of Rawhide, I'm having plenty of issues with it at the moment.
