The packages available at https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/ do not look "very current", e.g. kernel-default-5.3.18-22.2.x86_64.rpm: 06-Jun-2020 18:57
Indeed, they are not current. I reported this as bug 1180626

It looks as if there is something wrong with the procedures. When releasing a new build, they have provided the install media but they have not updated the repos. So the repos are way behind.
I haven't seen email like [opensuse-factory] Leap 15.2 Build 589.1 released! since last spring.
You can get a reasonable install using the DVD installer, because that has up-to-date repos on the DVD. But for anything not on the DVD, you have to make do with an older version.
This problem makes it hard to seriously test 15.3.
