So, not that this is recommended, but Adam Williamson recently posted
about successfully upgrading from Fedora 13 to Fedora 25. So... this is
possible. You're just likely to run into some odd situations and need
to do cleanup along the way, and it's hard to predict exactly what.

Aspirationally, the best choice is to get your server to the point
where a clean install is no big deal — user and system-local data all
in /home and/or /srv, all configuration done with Ansible playbooks (or
other config management), etc.

But, not everyone is there :) so, in your case, I think I'd try two
hops -- we do support 'N-2' upgrades -- so you can go to F23 and then
F25 from there. F21 includes dnf system upgrade, so it'll be the same
for both steps. You might also just be fine doing it all in one go.
