Currently, a game that has an installer is not allowed to be installed on multiple operating systems. For example, someone running Linux with Proton cannot download the Windows installer from Drop: the program sees the user is running Linux and only allows Windows users to download the game, even if the Linux user can run Windows programs on their OS. This means that admins would need to duplicate the installer in Drop just for it to be downloaded by Linux users.
