Good open source cold storage crypto wallets? (programming.dev)

I'm getting into crypto and am thinking about setting up a cold storage wallet on a USB drive. Do any of you all have favorites you'd reccomend for a newbie like me?

Coin Wallet on Linux repositories have worked fine for me.

Honestly though, crypto isn't worth your time. And half of the USB flash drives I had 10 years ago have failed, so don't rely on them for a long time, or keep at least 2 other backup copies elsewhere.

Thanks for the helpful advice, I appreciate it!
