The why is a good question, but I'd also like to know "How?"
I'd assume virtual machines - as for why, just checking their program works on different systems I guess
according to the meme it's just compiling, no other build steps... suspicious
Yeah, probably more boring than I assumed; podman with 1 apt based distro, one rpm based distro, and Nixos. Each doing an independent build and packaging in their respective builds systems.
I was hoping for some rube Goldberg's machine of compilation, but that's probably not the case.
