Skipping a version in Fedora upgrades generally seems to work, but there 
are no guarantees. I recommend backing up your data and doing a clean 
installation[1].

You could try installing and running preupgrade and seeing what that 
suggests.

Fedora is a fast-moving distribution. Each version is only supported for 
just over a year. If you're not happy upgrading your system at least 
annually then Fedora is probably not the best distribution for you.

Cheers,

[1] A version of this that I often use is - have your data on a separate 
filesystem and do a clean installation.
