Python 3.13.0 (final) has been released

Yes. If it isn’t working, please report an issue. There was a problem in b3 that the history was not preserved: Python 3.13.0b3 REPL empties ~/.python_history · Issue #121245 · python/cpython · GitHub – but it was fixed in b4.

For me, the history is preserved with the final release (Fedora build):
