Since it's an open source project, it's pretty easy to make a fork and readd Linux support.
The licence doesn't permit derivative works, so no forks and no downstream packages.
It's easy enough to fork the code as it existed under GPL3. Violentmonkey did that when they forked from Tampermonkey.
This dev also doesn't sound like he wants to put much effort into enforcing his license in the first place.
