chrismurphy reported a new issue against the project: `fedora-websites` that you are following: `` 1. https://getfedora.org/en/workstation/download/ 2. I read: To run Fedora Workstation, you will need: Fedora Media Writer (download above) 3. I look above and there is no obvious option to download FMW. The Download button is for the actual Workstation ISO, not FMW. 4. Only by getting curious, I click on Need instructions? Or a different version? which actually scrolls DOWN quite a bit, to three download options for FMW.
Seems like "download above" should read "download below" ``

chrismurphy added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` Aha I see what's going on. The big green Download button URL is different depending on platform. It's Fedora Media Writer .exe on Windows 10 (tested in Edge only), and it's Fedora Media Writer .dmg on macOS (tested in Firefox only). And it's an ISO on Linux (tested only with Firefox on Fedora).
I think that behavior is reasonable.
The only time it's a problem is on Linux. "You will need Fedora Media Writer (download above)" gets them a Download button linking to an ISO rather than FMW. That bit of confusion isn't my bigger concern though, it's that as a consequence some percentage will end up using something other than dd or FMW to create install media; and then they end up having problems booting it (e.g. Unetbootin). ``
