Etcher seems stable! But it's also a well over 100 MB download for a disk image writer. Rufus does more in less than 1% of the download size and also has a GUI.
Never realized that Etcher was an Electron app and it makes a lot of sense.
Yeah that crashed for me across several versions too lol.
Latest works, but I have like 5 different ones saved because I think 1.16-1.18 wouldn't complete writing to disk.
