It can be a pain if you're doing all the coding yourself in a non X-Platform language, but I think(?) that's not very common nowadays.
My real frustration is when Indie devs literally use like Gamemaker, Unity, Unreal, Godot, etc and these tools basically all come with very functional native Linux binary export functions, but they don't bother.
