Cool, thanks. I'm running vanilla Arch, so I'm not sure if I can use Manjaro sway. And thanks for introducing me to Ventoy2Disk; I've been using etcher for the longest time.
After formatting your usb stick with Ventoy2Disk, you just download and drag&drop the Manjaro Sway .iso-file into that usb stick. Then you boot and press the boot selector key, choose the usb stick and then the Manjaro Sway.
It boots straight into the working desktop. You don't need to install anything and it is fully usable. That's why it's called 'live mode'.
Ventoy2Disk works with Windows too. And rumors say even with MacOS(Hackintosh) but I've never tried that.
