[fedora-websites] Issue #814: Fedora Media Writer (download above)

[Chris Murphy]

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"

I think it *is* "download above" if Windows is detected as your OS. If we want
to get really fancy, this word could perhaps be switched based on the same test....

Does it really? We should be consistent then OR (as you mention) inject the same logic for
other OSes.

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).
