Often wondered why reviewers get so hung up on the installer, considering it is not something a regular user would do very often, but to some degree it makes sense, unlike the average user the reviewers end up installing various distros non-stop, so the installation experience does play an outsized role in their own OS experience. Anyway, hopefully the current redesign effort will get us some kudos.

I think it's also a point that reinforces what I said on the website
redesign Discourse thread[1]. That is, we *really* should focus on
highlighting that download+install isn't the *only* path to get Fedora
on your computer and that you can get a computer with Fedora
pre-installed[2].
