With GNU/Linux, the only constants are the GNU userspace and the Linux kernel.
It's actually fully possible to have Linux without GNU, such as in Android. I personally prefer Wayland/X11+Linux as a name for what many "Linux"-compatible apps support, because that is often one of the assumptions these apps make.
It would be impractical to target every single distro as a platform, but targeting dependancies might work, as well as some desktop environments and distros if they are particularly integrated.
