Isn't that what dnf-makecache.timer does? systemctl list-timers and see if it's enabled. Runs ten minutes after boot and every hour after that, and just does "dnf makecache --timer". Or is that not the database updating you were expecting dnf to do? All you need to do is enable and start the timer:
systemctl enable dnf-makecache.timer systemctl start dnf-makecache.timer
Yes, that is enabled. I was confused because on trying to remove dnfdragora-updater I get:
I mistakenly thought that dnfdaemon was what handled the background updating, but apparently not.
amazing given that how many years are you now active on fedora mailing-lists and still no clue or development of knowledge
Unlike some, I don't claim to know everything. I also believe that the best way to get answers is to ask questions.
