Simpler than Rufus on WINE , though not as simple as

sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sda-somedevice
(Yes, it is that simple on the CLI.)

The main thing is that linux support for writing device blocks is builtin and anything can hook into it. Only Windows is limited to a handful of decent tools like Rufus, with custom code for the purpose that needs non-trivial porting.
