Thanks for the info, I'm on linux mint and after checking these out it isn't immediately apparent from their websites whether or how I could install them. Still think etcher occupies a niche that alternatives don't fill, its website directs you straight to installing it, it's cross platform, and using it is very easy, so it's something that could reasonably be linked to in various install tutorials.
on mint you install them as packages.
