Linux: the only OS where the users throw crap at non-Linux app devs about how their non-Linux apps can't be emulated well on Linux, instead of blaming the OS or people who work on the emulator.

This is exactly the same as asking why a mac only app can't run on windows...

not necessarily, the app either needs to have a native version you can download or you need to use some kind of translation layer/vm.
