The good news is your upload for the Ubuntu launcher just contains the executable (and the other files), it isn't specifically like a debian package or anything. So in theory it should actually work for most Linux distros provided they manually install the dependencies. It was a painless experience for me as I ended up already having the ones it required.
The main benefit to something like AppImage would be that the dependencies all are bundled with it. Although just providing the launcher as an AppImage and not necessarily the executable might mean the dependencies for the actual program wouldn't be getting installed, unless the launcher was already taking care of that for us and what not.
