Nothing is stopping you from trying as many non-Debian ISOs as you like, just for fun, using Ventoy, Rufus, or any other tool you choose, for example.
For Debian, it is preferable to follow the official method provided. There is no need to qualify that: the recommended procedure is simple, reliable, and well-tested. UNetbootin https://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#write-usb Please note that Debian advises against using UNetbootin for this task. It can cause difficult-to-diagnose problems with booting and installation, so it is not recommended. Ventoy It is a tool I do not recommend, not only because it can cause problems with ISO integrity, booting, and installation, but also because it damages USB drives. balenaEtcher Neither Ventoy nor balenaEtcher (because of privacy concerns) is recommended by Tails. For other distributions: - Ubuntu and its flavors: Startup Disk Creator - Linux Mint: USB Image Writer - MX Linux: MX Live USB Maker - openSUSE: SUSE Studio Imagewriter - Pop!_OS: Popsicle Regarding your personal remark: Are you a Ventoy developer? If not, it’s hard to understand your position.
