Keep in mind that earlyoom installs only applies to new installs.
If one is upgrading from an earlier version of Fedora it won't be automatically installed. Nor is it
installed on all spins.
My system was upgraded from F31 to F32 and does have earlyoom installed and running. I have never installed it myself and indeed wasn't even aware of it before reading this thread. This is Fedora Workstation, though I actually use KDE.
OK, then maybe it is added to Workstation on the upgrade. I suppose you can verify that by looking at the dnf history for the upgrade.
I've not done an upgrade of a Workstation edition as of yet.
Either way, one can look at the journal to see if either the oom_reaper or earlyoom has terminated a process.
