The mistake there is even trying to maintain for all distros

Just providing official support for one popular distro like Ubuntu or such is usually enough, Linux users, especially those on DIY distros like Void or Arch, will happily get it running on other distros as a community effort, just that having any one supported distro makes that a ton easier

That was a very long time ago, not sure what distro was popular back then or if CCP even tried to support everything. It's a decade+ old memory so I might be missing out on some details.
