You don't have to support all distros anymore. Just take whatever windows build and test it with Proton.
Proton with what? Stable or experimental? DXVK or Wine3D? X11 or Wayland? Nvidia closed source or open source?
That's just what I came up with. There are probably a few more of these questions. Even Proton alone is not an easy target.
Especially if you want some low-level anticheat. And you know, if they have one platform that is easier to cheat, cheaters will all use that platform.
I don't know about you, but playing with tons of cheaters doesn't seem like a lot of fun to me.
Lone indie devs don't have to care about giving support to players, testing or cheaters.
So sure, if you completely ignore the difficult/expensive parts, the rest is super easy.
Yeah that's just Linux evangelists here, it's not really worth discussing anything with them lol.
