Ngh. Mac-only. Why do you do this to me? :P

But this fits the criteria, so in it goes! Thanks for contributing.

Thanks, @JesseTG!

Touché. (Vuo does have plans for cross-platform support though.)

What parts of it now forbid that? Heavy dependence on macOS APIs?

Yeah, there are some deviations from cross-platform code in order to adhere to the macOS human interface guidelines.

But, mainly, the holdup is that there are a lot of moving parts to Vuo, all of which need to be addressed in order to port to a new platform. One of Vuo's developers gives an overview on this thread.

Vuo is a community-driven project, where people make feature requests and vote on them. Porting to Linux is currently one of the top-voted feature requests, and porting to Windows isn't far behind.
