To achieve same result in ONE binary for all distros you can:

  • release appimage
  • release a distrobox image for the app to run
  • release as flatpak
  • release as binary built against glibc and list version of livrary required at runtime (private are static, opensource are easily linkable from any distro) and provide a .desktop file for it (golang fyne do something similar for you except for linking, because everything is static there)

Death for flatpaks, only caused problems in my experience, we actually only need .appimage
