The idea would be to explain that, in case you want to move to Fedora Linux, you should be sure what you’re trying to do. If you must use Adobe or Autodesk software for a living, then for the love of Christ don’t move to Fedora Linux. On the other hand, if you only ever use Google Chrome, then you might be able to migrate to Fedora Linux with ease.

After my first draft, I made a draft over at fedoramagazine.org

Thanks @eonfge do you consider this draft ready for review? You can drag-n-drop the article on the board at https://pagure.io/fedora-magazine-newsroom/boards/articles from In-progress to Review when it is.
Ow, certainly not yet. I'll let you know when.
Ow, my apologies. It took longer then expected to write this article since I was occupied with other writing-obligations. One only has so much mental ink.
That said, I think it's done; https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=35452&preview=true&preview_id=35452&_thumbnail_id=35690
If you could look at it with some fresh eyes, I would really appreciate that.
Edit; Also, can you drag it into 'Review' because I don't think I have permissions to do so.
This looks great @eonfge!
These are the only typos/corrections that I would suggest fixing:
While it’s fairly technical to set up properly, , it is a way of making many Windows-only applications functional on Fedora Linux.

Another way of trying Fedora Linux, is by booting it of a USB Stick.

If you want to make those tweaks to the article, go ahead. Then, if you are happy with it, we can run this on Friday, December 17th.
Thanks!

I made the changes and it's good to go live!
The last one is a bit interesting though. I know that 'Fedora is the community' and that 'Fedora Linux is the system' but to mix up the language a bit I use them often interchangeable. Same as for just calling it Linux a few times. The opposite also happens with SEO optimizations: You want to repeat a few arch-words so that it rates better.
All in all, it's just shuffling words around, but sometimes it does mean that it's a bit inconsistent from a technical point of view.
I think the idea is to get Fedora to match when people enter "Linux" in their google searches. So the more times we can use the word "Linux", the better. :-)
I've scheduled your article. Thanks!
Just for future reference, the cover images need to be in JPG format. We've found that some of the feed readers don't support the PNG format. I've taken care of it for this post. Thanks!
