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.

Restoring a USB thumbstick to factory settings?
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

Fedora Atomic Desktops
I'm using Silverblue 39 for about 2 month coming from NixOS Unstable. It's working very well for me. I have some packages layered like Nvidia and fish shell and https://github.com/CheariX/silverblue-akmods-keys for AKMODS modules work with secure boot. Things like neovim, pyright, helix, starship, LSPs and CLI applications I install with brew (brew.sh). For desktop things I use Flatpak.
I had a problem with some Flatpak applications (like Steam and Discord) and brew because brew puts its folder in the $PATH before the default ones (/usr/bin ...) and those Flatpak applications tried to use SSL keys from brew instead of the system ones. I just changed the order of the $PATH to make brew bin path to be after ther system ones.
For VSCode I'm not using the Flatpak I'm using the tarball one I just extract in ~/applications and symlink the code binary in the ~/.local/bin. It's working well, I don't have problem with VSCode not executing LSPs and lint things. The only problem is VSCode from tarball cannot updates itself, so I need to download the newer version and extract to ~/applications. There is this VSCode CLI version (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/?dv=linux64cli) but I was not able to make it use the wayland backend.

Microsoft has announced the retirement of Visual Studio for Mac. "Visual Studio for Mac will no longer be supported starting August 31, 2024." | And in May 2023 Unity announced it "has fully deprecated its support for VSCode"
VSCode has a long history of not working well with Unity, so they deprecated it.
