if you use a web-based engine that exports to smth that can be played in-browser as an HTML like decker, tuesday JS (also usable as an android app), one of the videotomes, or jupiter engine then it should run no problem, no matter the OS. if you're more ambitious, I'm pretty sure godot + dialogic can export to every OS and run on linux. as someone else said, ren'py is also an option and the base standard of the indie visual novel dev community.
if you have questions about any of these engines specifically I can tell you about my experience!
