Now that it is becoming easier to run linux on windows and maybe macos, linux dev should make an effort to guarantee linux apps run REALLY fine on window and mac. That way instead of creating 3 native apps (win, mac and linux), you could simply target linux.

This won't work - developers will always target the biggest platform first and then complain that it takes to much work adapt the program to more portable APIs.
The people that need to make sure Linux apps run REALLY fine on windows and macos are windows and Apple.
