Honestly I promise you're better off using a better organization system than dump it on the desktop... But I can totally solve that problem for you!
It's a little tough to explain, but what you're looking for is a different Desktop Environment. Fedora Workstation uses Gnome, which doesn't do desktop icons by default. I love it, but it's not for everyone.
Fortunately, this is Linux so you have a choice!
If you want to stick with Fedora, use the KDE or Cinnamon spin. Check the Fedora Spins page:
https://fedoraproject.org/spins/
KDE is super customizable and modern, with lots of fun stuff you can do with the desktop, while Cinnamon is a bit less flexible but more familiar for folks coming from Windows. Either way, you can clutter up your desktop to your heart's content ๐.
Either way, it's still Fedora underneath.
If you really want to try something not Fedora, then you could go Linux Mint if you like the way Cinnamon looks; they invented that Desktop Environment, and make what might be the most beginner friendly Linux Distro:
If you'd rather KDE and want something. other than Fedora, then I can suggest KDE Neon. It's actually handled by the KDE project itself:
Hope that helps, and if you have any more questions, I'll help if I can.
