UPDATE: After reading 600+ of your comments, here is the updated list of open source Linux programs mostly for beginners (thus mostly gui).
I'd like to give a shoutout to mintstick for USB image writer, it is the one bundled with Linux mint but I always end up installing it on other distros too because it is so simple and does what you want

Usb imagewriter
Yes, you can compile the package from the GitHub source (https://github.com/linuxmint/mintstick). If using Arch Linux the package is also available in the AUR.

Linux Mint has a simple graphical program called mintstick that can do this... it's a python script and I'd be surprised if it had dependencies that would cause it not to work in OpenSUSE. https://github.com/linuxmint/mintstick

What tool do you guys use to flash the Pop! OS iso? / Pop! OS NVIDIA iso kernel panics every time I boot it because it can't find /init
I'd use Etcher primarily due to it simplicity, and it's available on several platforms. Popsicle next if you have a linux system.
